About
The Abraham Ottenberg Service Award award was established in 1973 by the Silicon Valley Section to recognize members who have rendered outstanding service to the Section. It is named after Abraham Ottenberg, a former member who devoted much of himself to service to the Section. The award currently consists of an engraved plaque and a check for $250. The award recipient is selected from candidates nominated by members of the Section. Nominees must be members or affiliates of the Silicon Valley Section.
