The Internet Governance Forum or IGF was established in order to provide the necessary support for the United Nations Secretary General in conducting the mandate from the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS). The IGF serves as a platform wherein stakeholders from industry, government and civil society can discuss issues related to Internet governance. It serves as a collaborative, interactive platform where all stakeholders can put forward their views and exchange ideas beneficial for Internet governance. The IGF was formally established in 2006 as a part of the outcome of the second phase of WSIS.

.co is the country code top-level domain name (ccTLD) for Colombia as per ISO-3166-1 code. A government supported entity was created between Arcelandia S.A. and Neustar, .CO Internet SAS, which manages .co as an open ccTLD.
