Founded in the year 2000 and relaunched in 2020 as DOT Europe, our association has developed in tandem with the rapid evolution of online services.

Collectively our members provide Europe’s citizens and businesses with some of the internet’s most popular products, platforms and services.

As the voice of the leading internet companies in Europe, DOT Europe prides itself on being a consensus based organisation which brings a diverse membership together to agree on their collective stance on EU tech policy.

Put simply, DOT Europe stands for an innovative, open and safe internet for Europe’s citizens and businesses.
