Anat Joffe, recipient of the Certificate of Recognition.

"Ever too often, the role of the family is forgotten when recognizing the achievements of one of its members. Without the endurance and support of my wife, Anat, and my daughter, Tami-Lee, throughout the long, stressful years, it would have been impossible to make this Symposium a reality, especially under the very special circumstances it had undergone. For that, I am truly indebted." - Symposium Chairman, Elya B. Joffe, during the Wednesday Awards Banquet.

Oren Hartal was the recipient of four awards, including the Certificate of Technical Achievement.

Bill Radasky received the Certificate of Appreciation.

Dr. Moshe Merzer, recipient of the Certificate of Recognition.
