Susannah Gray

I am a strategic communications expert with many years of experience in multi-stakeholder, community-driven communications and public relations. Having been part of the Internet ecosystem since 2005, I have a deep understanding of Internet governance, policy development, Internet technologies, and the issues affecting the Internet’s end users.

As Director, Communications at the Internet Society, I support communications efforts throughout the organization to further our work to promote and defend an open and accessible Internet for all.

I firmly believe that the Internet can empower individuals and communities to change their circumstances through open innovation and access to information. I have spent much of my career working for organizations that strive to make the world a better place for everyone on and offline.

Having been away from my homeland for over half of my life, I consider myself to be a global citizen and embrace the borderless opportunities that the Internet offers.

I am based in Lisbon, Portugal.
