The ACM Prize in Computing was established by the Association for Computing Machinery to recognize individuals for early to mid-career innovative contributions to computing. The award carries a prize of $250,000. Financial support is provided by an endowment from Infosys Inc.{{cite web|title=About the ACM Prize in Computing|url=http://awards.acm.org/acm-prize|website=ACM Awards|publisher=ACM|accessdate=22 April 2017|language=en}}
The ACM Prize in Computing was previously known as the ACM-Infosys Foundation Award in the Computing Sciences for award years 2007 through 2015. It is one of the two highest distinctions given by the Association for Computing Machinery with the other one being the Turing Award. In 2016 it was announced that ACM Prize in Computing recipients are invited to participate in the Heidelberg Laureate Forum alongside with Turing Award recipients and Nobel Laureates.
