On Mai 13, the first Swiss IPv6 Council member event of 2013 takes place in Zurich. Doors open at 5.30pm for the pre-lounge-networking part. At 6pm we will be welcomed by Silvia Hagen who is presenting our special guests for the evening.
Balthasar Glättli, National Councillor from the "Grüne Partei" and net politician, will be talking about the actual status of Swiss net politics and explains what a free Internet means for our society. It was in December 2012 when he submitted his Motion für Netzneutralität to the Bundesrat for a legal anchorage of net neutrality. We are very eager to learn more about how the political debate around this topic looks like.
In the second part, Alain Fiocco, Senior Director, Head of Cisco IPv6 High Impact Program, describes the influence of IPv6 to net neutrality, as well as the current state of international public policies. His thesis: To ensure a secure and free internet, we need public policies. And the implementation of certain policies can be much more easily implemented with IPv6.
As an introduction to the discussion René Dönni Kuoni, Deputy Head of the Telecom Services Division BAKOM, presents the current position and the plans of BAKOM.
Members and non-members are more than welcome to this event.
