Java Champions

Java Champions was originally created by Sun Microsystems, now acquired by Oracle corporation, in order to engage with prominent members of the Java community. The Java Champions program was a part of the Sun Microsystem's Outreach department, originally. The idea was to engage with the leaders of the community in order to communicate corporate message, product announcement as well as allow those leaders to give feedback and advice to Sun Microsystems.

Java is a language, a runtime and a platform that runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

Official Statement

The Java Champions are an exclusive group of passionate Java technology and community leaders who are community-nominated and selected under a project sponsored by Oracle. Java Champions get the opportunity to provide feedback, ideas, and direction that will help Oracle grow the Java Platform. This interchange may be in the form of technical discussions and/or community-building activities with Oracle's Java Development and Developer Program teams.
