W3C Welcomes Google and Adobe as First Organization Sponsors

W3C introduced a W3C Organization Sponsor program earlier this year to enhance its capacity to support the deployment of Web standards. W3C announces today the first W3C Organization Sponsors: Google (Gold) and Adobe (Silver). W3C thanks both organizations for their generosity. W3C will use the donations to support training, documentation, tools, and outreach to Web professionals. "W3C has been a cornerstone component of the World Wide Web's evolution and Google is pleased to be able to support and participate in its processes," said Vint Cerf, Chief Internet Evangelist at Google and an Internet pioneer. "W3C brings many perspectives together from around the world to move the Web forward," said Kevin Lynch, Chief Technology Officer at Adobe. "We're happy to help support this effort and look forward to ongoing collaboration around our shared vision in the standardization of a richer Web."
