Comprised of an elite group of top technology executives, the committee strives to recognize IT companies that have leveraged technology through the betterment of society.
"The Computerworld Honors Chairmen's Committee is an excellent opportunity for prestigious corporate leaders, such as Klaus, who will be tasked with the challenging role of identifying this years honorees," said Carrigan. "United by this common goal, we are honored to have George Klaus as a member of our team."
The Computerworld Honors Program ( http://www.cwhonors.org) unites chairmen and CEOs of the world's foremost information technology companies to recognize the most outstanding user achievements in technology each year. The process culminates with an awards ceremony, which will take place on June 5, 2006 in Washington, D.C., with a guest list that represents a who's who in IT. The technology achievements honored by this program are preserved and protected in national archives, and in over 100 universities, museums and research institutions throughout the world.
As part of the Chairmen's Committee, Klaus will help to identify the organizations whose use of information technology has been especially noteworthy for the originality of its conception, the breadth of its vision and the significance of its benefit to society.
