We are excited to be working with them on this critical search for the Internet2 community.
Established and supported by the Internet2 Board, the Internet2 CEO Search Committee represents the breadth of our community and their experience and expertise, giving me great confidence that we will succeed in identifying a new leader who can build upon our success of delivering quality technology services to the research and education community.
The members of this committee are:
- Cynthia K. Larive, Vice Chair and Chancellor, University of California Santa Cruz (Chair)

Once we launch the search into the market, WittKieffer will be setting up a website to provide updated information, and we will share that when it is available. WittKieffer will also be reaching out to the community more broadly to seek input as we establish the candidate criteria for this important role.
In the meantime, questions or expressions of interest can be communicated to the search consultants at Internet2CEO@wittkieffer.com.
Thank you all for your support and participation as we search and select a leader to drive Internet2 to future success.
Best regards,
Cindy Larive
