LEO Foundation. Established by David Tresman Caminer to promote the memory of
LEO and use revenue from the publication of the McGraw-Hill published books on the
LEO story to that end. The Foundation organised the 50th anniversary conference of the
first LEO application at the London Guildhall with sponsorship from the City of London
and the Wall Street Journal. The papers presented at the conference were subsequently
published by the Journal of Strategic Information Systems in a special edition edited by
Professor Robert Galliers. Members of the Foundation included Peter Hermon (treasurer),
Colin Tully, John Aris and Frank and Ralph Land. Subsequently, after the death of David
Caminer, aged 92, the Foundation was merged with the LEO Computers Society.
