  • Organization: CABASE
  • Reason for the nomination: I am nominating Esteban Lescano due to his extensive contribution to the development of the Internet community in Latin America and the Caribbean over more than 15 years. During this time, he has always defended the technical principles behind the Internet and sought to incorporate the perspectives of the various stakeholders within the ecosystem, with a special focus on Internet Service Providers (ISPs). Since 2019, he has proven his commitment to LACNIC and the community, as well as his ability to serve in the role of Secretary of the Board of Directors. He has actively participated in establishing and advancing the Federation of Associations and Chambers of Internet Providers of Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC-ISP) as a cooperation space for the development of sound regulatory practices in the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean.
    For all of the above, I believe his continued presence on the LACNIC Board will continue to remain highly positive for both LACNIC and its community.
