The award was presented during the SIIA’s annual CODiE Awards Ceremony, held in conjunction with the ABM & Information Industry Summit.
“The Peter E. Jackson Innovation Award recognizes individuals who are an inspiration to the entire information industry,” said Michael Marchesano, Managing Director of CISD & ABM divisions at SIIA. "Webb Shaw is an innovator who has had a profound impact on the B2B publishing industry. He is someone who is generous and inspirational to the people around him, and has been a great contributor to SIIA and our community."
Shaw commented, "It is an honor to be selected - I can't think of a better way to cap off a career! It is also humbling, because I could not have accomplished what I have without the contributions of many others. I am especially grateful for the support and encouragement of my colleagues for over 22 years at J. J. Keller, as well as the staff and membership of SIIA."
