In 2024, the Computer Museum of America launched its Hall of Fame to honor individuals who have made remarkable contributions to the field of computer technology, spanning both hardware and software development.
Each year, one or two inductees will be chosen by a committee from a list of nominees submitted through the Computer Museum of America’s website. Nominees are evaluated based on their impact on the information technology industry, with an ideal candidate being someone who has driven progress through innovation and creativity. Their achievements not only advanced the field but also inspired further advancements, earning them a distinguished place in the industry.
The selection committee consists of a chairperson, a member of the CMoA board, a museum staff member, and a representative from the technology industry or academia.
Honorees will be recognized at BYTE, CMoA’s annual fundraiser taking place on Thursday, March 6, 2025. They will receive a plaque featuring their photo and a brief biography, to be displayed in the museum, a keepsake certificate, and a reserved table for eight to BYTE.
Nominations being accepted through December 20, 2024.
