[Colin Perkins <[e-mail]>]

I’m pleased to announce that the Applied Networking Research 
Prize (ANRP) winners for 2023 are [Simon 
Scherrer](https://netsec.ethz.ch/people/simon/), [Boris 
Pismenny](https://borispis.github.io/), [Siva 
Kakarla](https://www.sivak.dev/), [Dennis 
Trautwein](https://dtrautwein.eu/), [Arthur Selle 
Jacobs](https://asjacobs92.github.io/), and [Ram Sundara 
Raman](https://ramakrishnansr.com/).


The ANRP is awarded to recognise the best recent results in 
applied networking, interesting new research ideas of 
potential relevance to the Internet standards community, and upcoming 
people that are likely to have an impact on Internet standards and 
technologies, with a particular focus on cases where these people or 
ideas would not otherwise get much exposure or be able to participate 
in the discussion.
