We are a non-profit, fiscally-sponsored project of Code for Science and Society , a US 501(c)(3) public charity.

We are a distributed team spread across South America, Western and Eastern Europe, and North America. We have a combination of experience in cloud engineering and open source, research and education, and open communities. Our Steering Council provides strategic guidance and oversight to our team.

Below is a list of each team and its members.

To sustain and grow our operations, 2i2c receives funding from the following sources:

• Revenue from managed services. We build self-sustaining cloud services that generate revenue through management and support contracts. See our services page for more information.
• Project-focused grants. We lead and collaborate on several projects that involve developing and supporting infrastructure for research and education. See our projects page for more information.
• Donations and core support. We raise central funding that provides crucial core support for 2i2c’s operations, and supports our time in supporting open source communities.

Major sources of funding #

The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative awarded 2i2c $1.4m over 3 years for capacity building in the Jupyter ecosystem for research and education.

Invest in Open Infrastructure along with Joint Roadmap for Open Science Tools awarded 2i2c a $5,000 grant to fund JupyterHub cloud infrastructure for projects that did not have their own cloud funding.

2i2c receives support from the Climate Data Lab at Columbia University (~$500,000 over 2 years), for managing and developing cloud infrastructure for the Pangeo Project .

We received funding from CZI to serve open cloud infrastructure to communities in Latin America and Africa. More information is in this blog post .
