IOG io.net Foundation

The IOG (Internet of GPUs) Foundation is dedicated to advancing and supporting the growth of the IO Protocol, decentralized network and ecosystem. We cultivate an open, collaborative, and secure ecosystem that enables scalable computation across a global network of GPUs. This ecosystem empowers developers, researchers, startups and enterprises by providing them with access to high-performance computational power without relying on traditional centralized cloud providers. The IOG Foundation is focused on establishing a strong, transparent governance model for the IO Protocol, promoting fair and decentralized decision-making processes. This governance model ensures that contributions to the ecosystem align with the collective goals and standards of the community, fostering a sustainable, self-governing network that evolves in response to the needs of its users. A significant pillar of this ecosystem is io.net, the world's largest decentralized GPU cloud, with a network of over 300,000 verified GPUs. This powerful and scalable network provides accessible computing power outside traditional centralized systems, enabling users to access extensive resources while supporting a vision of a more equitable and decentralized digital future. The IOG Foundation supports research that drives innovation in critical areas aligned with its mission, including: - Decentralized AI Training and Inference - Confidential Computing - Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) Through these initiatives, the IOG Foundation aims to create an ecosystem that accelerates innovation in decentralized AI and secure computing. By offering a powerful alternative to traditional centralized systems and setting new standards in cloud computing and AI, the Foundation envisions a future where powerful computing is accessible to all, driven by a decentralized, community-governed model.
