Codero Hosting Joins i2Coalition As a Founding Member
 Codero Hosting has become one of the 42 founding members of the new Internet Infrastructure Coalition (i2Coalition) which is aiming to ensure the growth of the billion-dollar industry. The hosting solutions provider stated that it joined the group "to show its continued support of the organization's goals to protect and continue Internet's free flow of information and commerce." The coalition came into force following an allegiance that opposed both the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and Protect-IP Act (PIPA) in January of this year, which Codero took part in. Emil Sayegh, Codero President and CEO, said: "The free flow of information on the internet is as sacred as free speech in our society. The i2Coalition was formed to prevent misguided legislation from taking root, and it succeeded. "Going forward, the i2Coaltion will focus on the education of our society and legislators about how the internet currently works and how only the development of modern standards can adequately protect the Internet's free flow of information and commerce while also securing individual's rights." According to the i2Coalition members, the organization's goal is to be the principle voice and leading advocate for the Internet infrastructure industry thought to be worth around $46 billion. The system will also look to support trailblazing enterprises that make significant private investments and drive innovation for the "nuts and bolts" of the Internet, including providers of data centers, web hosting and cloud services. "We believe the continued expansion of the Internet is vital for fostering economic growth in the U.S.," said Christian Dawson, i2Coalition co-founder and Board Chair "The i2Coalition will serve as a liaison between its members, the public they serve and policymakers to ensure that the Internet infrastructure industry continues to harness the full potential it has for creating jobs and driving innovation in the United States."
