Computing Community Consortium

Overview
The Computing Community Consortium is an organization whose goal is to catalyze and empower the U.S. computing research community to pursue audacious, high-impact research.

Established in 2006 through a cooperative agreement between the Computing Research Association (CRA) &mdash; representing over 220 North American academic departments, industrial research labs, and professional societies with computing research interests &mdash; and the U.S. National Science Foundation, the CCC provides:

"a voice for the national computing research community. The CCC facilitates the development of a bold, multi-themed vision for computing research, and communicates that vision to a wide range of major stakeholders."
