In 1999, several industry leaders came together to form a global, non-profit
organization with the goal of driving the adoption of a single
worldwide-accepted standard for high-speed wireless local area networking. We
are that organization. We are known as the Wi-Fi Alliance.
Today, with more than 250 members and growing, common goals still bind us together. As Wi-Fi networks continue to expand through businesses, homes, and now public hotspots that provide wireless access locations for people on the go, compatibility is critical. At the Wi-Fi Alliance we develop universal specifications and follow through with rigorous testing and Wi-Fi certification of wireless devices. The end result leads to the confidence that both home and enterprise users need to continue to embrace Wi-Fi.
