Montevideo October 31st.- Ten personalities who during the past decade have
contributed to the development of the Internet in Latin America and the
Caribbean were honored today with the 2012 Outstanding Achievement Award
presented by the Regional Internet Registry, LACNIC.

For the first time in the history of the Award, ten leaders of the regional
Internet community were honored simultaneously for their sustained and
significant contribution in benefit of the development of the Information
Society in Latin America and the Caribbean.

The honorees come from different areas and represent every region of the
continent: Valeria Betancourt (Ecuador), Luis Furlán (Guatemala), Marcos
Galperín (Argentina), Demi Getschko (Brazil), Anthony Harris (Argentina),
Bernadette Lewis (Trinidad and Tobago), Ben Petrazzini (Argentina), Loretta
Simon (Grenada), José Soriano (Peru), and Edmundo Vitale (Venezuela).

Recipients of the 2012 Outstanding Achievement Award were presented with
their awards during a moving ceremony that took place within the framework
of the LACNIC 18 meeting, which marks the tenth anniversary of the creation
of the Regional Internet Registry (RIR) for Latin America and the Caribbean.

LACNIC's Board of Directors believes it is important to honor these ten
individuals for their longstanding, dedicated efforts towards the
development of the Internet and for the example they set to the rest of the
community.

The honorees have distinguished themselves through their contribution to
private endeavors, their work with civil society, the promotion of public
Internet policies, research and academic papers related to the Information
Society, community building, infrastructure development, and technical
advances.
