Dear Irina,
Thank you for your interest in the European Peering Forum.
Unfortunately, your registration for the forum has been declined because you are not peering at any of the four EPF host IXPs and/or the guest IXP. If your company has concrete deployment plans at one of the host exchanges you are also welcome to attend EPF. Please verify.
If you disagree with our decision, please send an email to info@peering-forum.eu.
We apologise for the inconvenience.
Best regards,
EPF Hosts

Hi Arnold, Now she answered, as we said, no intentions in peering at Netnod at the moment. *"Hi Jonas! There was a question about who we had been in contact with regarding the interconnections at Netnod, and I remembered you.It was related to the registration for the conference in Paris, EPF. Sorry for bothering you. I actually felt a bit embarrassed about it.Have a great day!"* *Jonas Qvarfordt* Interconnection Relations Manager *Netnod AB*Mobile: +46 70 727 72 66 Email: jq@netnod.se Greta Garbos väg 13 | SE 169 40 Solna | Sweden netnod.se <http://www.netnod.se/> Den tis 25 aug. 2026 kl 13:58 skrev Jonas Qvarfordt <jq@netnod.se>:
