Dear Colleagues,

The Network Information & Infrastructure (NI&I) Service Award has been set up to reward individuals and organisations for providing Internetworking services and Infrastructure in Africa. The NI&I Service Award pays tribute to the actors of this sector in Africa and the Indian Ocean and sets the foundation to reward the next generation of heroes and models from the African Internet technical community for their achievements.

In 2011, the third NI&I Service Award Ceremony will be held during the AfriNIC-15 public policy meeting in Yaounde, Cameroon. The call for nominations is now open for the following Award categories:

1. NI&I Award
2. NI&I Young Professional Award

If you know someone or an organisation you believe deserves the award through their dedication towards the development of Internetworking services and Infrastructure in Africa, please send us your recommendations by filling the form at : http://www.niiserviceaward.org/index.php/nominations/2011.

The AfriNIC Meeting Team
