Dear ontology enthusiasts,
the IAOA [1] has established an award of honorary fellowships [2] in
order to recognize distinguished scholars in the field of applied ontology.
IAOA Fellows will have contributed significantly and in a sustained
manner to the field of applied ontology, for example by outstanding
scientific achievements, which often goes hand-in-hand with their strong
dedication and service to the community.
Their selection is subject to an annual process based on nominations
from the community.
For 2025, we solicit nominations by February 23, 2025 (Sunday, UTC-12).
Please send nominations to [3] info@iaoa.org, thereby consequentially
reaching the selection committee. Complete details on the process are
specified in the IAOA's Fellowship Procedure [4], an excerpt of which
describing the nomination requirements is copied below.
The 2025 selection committee consists of
- Mara Abel, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul,
Porto Alegre, Brazil
- Michael Gruninger, University of Toronto, Canada
- Janna Hastings, University of St. Gallen, University of Zürich,
Switzerland
- Oliver Kutz, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy
- Fabian Neuhaus, Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, Germany
We look forward to each of your nominations. Please observe the basic
rules below carefully to make valid nominations. Many thanks in advance
for all efforts!
Happy New Year, and best regards,
Oliver Kutz
President, IAOA

< excerpt from [4] >
To nominate a person, a nominator sends a message to the committee that
summarizes the main contributions of the nominee to applied ontology and
argues why the nominee should be selected. The nomination should be
seconded by at least one supporter. Among the nominator and the
supporter(s), at least one should be an IAOA member. Self nominations
are not allowed.
A nominee cannot be part of the selection committee. If that happens,
the nominee will be given the option to reject the nomination or
withdraw from the selection committee.
