PROJECTS & INITIATIVES

CESNET

Current R&D activities in Future Internet area in the Czech Republic are systematically demonstrated mainly by those created and realized by CESNET, z. s. p. o. (the NREN operator in the Czech Republic) related to development of the Czech NREN CESNET2. Even if these activities seem to be performed by single legal entity in the Czech Republic only, due to close relation of this subject to the entire research and education community (CESNET was established in 1996 by Czech Universities and Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic) and close co-operation with this sector, these activities are representing those in the Czech Republic well. It is necessary to mention, that there is a significant institutional support provided by Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports.
