ARMONK, N.Y. - 03 Apr 2013: IBM (NYSE: IBM) today marked the 50th
anniversary of its Fellows program by elevating eight employees to IBM
Fellow for their innovations in such strategic areas as cloud and mobile
computing, big data and business analytics. The new Fellows will be
visible in reinforcing IBM's commitment to technical eminence worldwide
as they each "adopt" an IBM growth market, serving as technology
ambassadors in key regions.
The new IBM Fellows join an elite group of inventors whose efforts
benefit from IBM's more than $6 billion annual investment in research
and development as well as other initiatives that serve clients. Since
1963, only 246 IBMers have earned the IBM Fellow distinction, and 85 of
them remain active IBM employees. IBM Fellows have generated nearly
7,500 patents, received five Nobel prizes, thousands of government and
professional citations and have a massive store of published research in
scientific journals.
