Microsoft has honoured its leading partners in Malaysia in recognition of a local channel delivering on the potential of digital transformation.
Held in Kuala Lumpur, the 2019 Malaysia Partner Awards acknowledged ecosystem excellence in delivering customer solutions, spanning the vendor’s entire suite of technology offerings.
“Malaysia is currently bracing itself for the Fourth Industrial Revolution, with organisations across the nation mapping out their digital transformation strategies,” said Yeo Swee Key, director of Commercial Partners and SMC, Microsoft Malaysia. “With technological solutions becoming increasingly complex and innovative, having the right digital transformation partner is crucial in ensuring future success.
“As such, the Microsoft Partner Network is shining beacon of hope for a better, brighter future - not just in terms of business success, but also for the growth and development of our nation as a whole.”
Rhipe took home the coveted Country Partner of the Year award in Malaysia - building on recent success in Singapore - in addition to cloud channel development honours.
Meanwhile, SoftwareOne - fresh from acquiring Singapore-based RightCloud in February 2019 - scooped three awards on the night, spanning cloud growth, modern workplace and IP co-sell.
Enfrasys Consulting was recognised for expertise in system integration and cloud infrastructure, with Iverson Associates, Agile Dynamics Solutions and Web Bytes acknowledged across learning, business applications and ISV categories respectively.
