        <p class="lead">The PyTorch Foundation is a neutral home for the deep learning community to 
          collaborate on the open source PyTorch framework and ecosystem. The PyTorch Foundation is supported by 
          leading contributors to the PyTorch open source project. The Foundation leverages resources provided by members 
          and contributors to enable community discussions and collaboration.
          <br />
          <br />
          Community collaboration is critical for the framework’s evolution as well as the development of 
          associated projects that support using PyTorch in production and at scale. As part of The Linux Foundation, the PyTorch 
          community will also collaborate on training, local and regional events, open source developer tooling, academic research, 
          and guides to help new users and contributors have a productive experience.

        <span></span>
        <p class="lead">The Foundation’s mission is to drive adoption of AI and deep learning tooling by fostering and sustaining 
          an ecosystem of open source, vendor-neutral projects with PyTorch. We democratize state-of-the-art tools, libraries and other 
          components to make these innovations accessible to everyone. Read more about the Role and Values of the PyTorch Foundation <a href="/assets/pytorch-foundation-principles.pdf" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
