==History==

==History==

CORE was launched through work with leaders in internet governance and liberalization, [[ISOC]], and [[IANA]] in the fall 1996. The organization grew out of the gTLD-MoU, which involved hundreds of companies and individuals. Those involved with CORE's foundation believed that the internet was ill-equipped, from its inception as a mainly academic resource, to grow into its role as a community tool that needed more competition and de-regulation. CORE is funded by its registrars, 85 in international markets and 23 in the U.S., all of whom are dedicated to fairness and competition on the internet.<ref>[http://www.corenic.org/background.htm Corenic Background]</ref>
