IROS2022 実行委員会（実行委員長：馬 書根（立命館大学））

推薦理由：【貢献の顕著さ】IROS2022 は，コロナ禍の影響を残す中，オンライン参加者も可能としながら現地開催するという前例のない大会となったが，4,460名超の参加者(4,200 名若の現地入場者)を得，参加者に満足させることに細心の気配りを払いながら，数々のコロナ対策を講じ，会議期間中に感染者を一人も出さずに全大会を大成功裏に実施頂いた．
【候補者の努力の程度】コロナ禍水際対策による国外参加者の入国制限や特殊なビザへの対応や海外企業展示対応，多くの不確定要素の中でコロナ感染防止を考慮しながらの各種活動の立案と実施を頂き，最終的に実行委員会の皆様の絶大なご尽力をもって，コロナ禍以後初のハイブリッド開催を混乱なく遂行し，安全かつ参加者満足度の高い大会を実現して頂いた．
