Posted on behalf of Don Sweete, Chief Executive Officer, SNOMED International
SNOMED International encourages you to consider submitting nominations for the following awards, acknowledging individual contributions to our organization and community:
-
The Award for Excellence (given annually), and
-
The Lifetime Achievement Award (awarded periodically)
In 2025, the Award for Excellence was awarded to Pablo Orefice, Uruguay, and Olivier Bodenreider, USA was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award.
Your Challenge?
-
Think about someone worthy; someone deserving, and someone who should be honored at the SNOMED International Awards Gala in Sydney, Australia in October 2026.
-
Note: An employee of SNOMED International is eligible to nominate someone in collaboration with someone from the Community of Practice as a co-nominator.
It is through your thoughtful consideration and retrospection that we can honor the thought leaders, past and present, in our community.
Please reference the awards policies and forms attached to this post, or visit the Awards Page for more information.
We look forward to formally recognizing excellence among the SNOMED International Community at October’s planned Awards Gala in Sydney.

We hope to hear from you soon!
Kind regards,
Don Sweete
