The Network Information & Infrastructure (NI&I) Service Award has been set up to reward individuals and organisations for contributing to Internet development 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 2013, the fifth NI&I Service Award Ceremony was held in Lusaka, Zambia. The winners for the two award categories were:
-
Alan Barrett for the NI&I Service Award
