Euro-IX or The European Internet Exchange Association formed in May 2001 with the intention to further develop, strengthen and improve the Internet Exchange Point community.

A number of Internet Exchange Points recognised a need to combine their resources so as to co-ordinate technical standards across the continent, develop common procedures, and share and publish statistics and other information. This publishing of information would in turn give all interested parties a better insight into the world of IXPs.

There are currently over 40 IXPs affiliated to Euro-IX.
