Nominations

Each year, we welcome a new class of Fellows selected for their exceptional ethics, dedication to the craft, and meaningful contributions to CI and adjacent disciplines. Our Fellows represent the best of our community: innovators, mentors, and leaders whose impact is felt across the field.

Nominating a Candidate

Know someone who embodies these qualities? We encourage you to nominate them.


Competitive, strategic, technical, and other intelligence practitioners are all eligible. Nominations open each year through an announcement on this website and our social media channels. Candidates who demonstrate a strong record of service to the profession are selected each summer and inducted each October.

Conflict of Interest Policy

In keeping with our commitment to ethical practice, the Selections Committee asks that nominators be mindful of potential conflicts of interest. Individuals currently serving in a Board, director, or fiduciary role at a dues-collecting or revenue-generating CI association, institute, or affiliate are not eligible during their tenure. We welcome nominations for these individuals once their leadership term has concluded.
