The first of October 2024 marked the 30th anniversary of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). To mark this milestone, W3C hosted W3C@30, aligning it with the TPAC 2024 conference in Anaheim, CA, USA, where the web standards community gathered.

There, 30 years of W3C and web advancements were celebrated, highlighting W3C's global impact, and looking ahead to the Web's future. The Web has become a central part of daily life for billions, and the Web Consortium has been instrumental in shaping its evolution over the past 30 years. 

ERCIM became the European host of W3C in 2003. Today, ERCIM is the European partner of W3C.
