*2020 Annual Report Now Available *
*"NANOG, like most organizations, found itself scrambling to address the
restrictions brought upon by the pandemic – no air travel, social
distancing, and no large gatherings. Conditions such as these for an
event-centric organization, such as NANOG, can be devastating. However,
change, whether welcome or not, always creates opportunities for reflection
and potentially – growth."*

           - NANOG Executive Director Edward McNair

*The year 2020 introduced a concerted effort to connect with our community
virtually.*  Production and organization pivots included NANOG developing a
method to engage a large attendee participation via virtual platforms. NANOG
had previously webcasted meetings before 2020, but had never before
interacted with the audience while live streaming.
