Each year in April the Computerworld Honors brings together in one of the global capitals of science and technology a new group of Computerworld Honors Laureates – an extraordinary selection of people who are leading one of the most important world-wide revolutions in history.

Formal ceremonies both honor their achievements and mark the moment at which their stories officially become part of The Computerworld Honors Program's Archives On-Line and the international research collections of the archives and academic council members supported by the Program.

The work of these Laureates has been nominated for inclusion in the
international archives of the history of information technology by one or more of the 100 members of the Program's Chairmen's Committee. Their achievements have been deemed exemplary, and their stories have been selected to provide an invaluable resource for future generations throughout the world. Their stories will serve both those who are now seeking to emulate their achievements and future generations who will seek to understand the technology revolution of which the Laureates' work is a part.
