The Big Win: Motifworks Recognized as Microsoft Partner of the Year Finalist for App Innovation
I have been going to the Microsoft Inspire conference since 2013. Every year Microsoft celebrates the success and achievements of its Partners with everyone as they recognize the Partner of the Year award winners and finalists. It is a BIG deal.
We are proud to announce that Motifworks Inc has been named a finalist for the Microsoft 2020 Application Innovation Partner of the Year Award. In the first-ever digital Microsoft Inspire, Motifworks was recognized for demonstrating excellence in innovation and implementation of customer solutions based on Microsoft technology.
Since our inception in 2010, Motifworks has shown remarkable progress and a willingness to continually develop its expertise in Cloud-based technologies. The goal has been to help enterprise companies create cloud-based digital platforms and work with ISV to move their legacy applications to a SaaS-based model. In late 2013, when Azure became more mainstream and with the ascension of Satya Nadella to the position of Microsoft CEO, I decided to shift the business strategy to focus on the Azure cloud as the primary delivery platform.
My strategy to focus only on Microsoft Azure Cloud has made Motifworks a truly ‘Born-in-the-Cloud’ Azure partner. Over the years, I have witnessed how enabling Azure is as a technology. Thus, we began our well-established relationship with Microsoft as a trusted, cutting-edge Partner with deep Azure expertise, making us the Partner of Year Award Finalist for App Innovation. This recognition is a testament to our drive for excellence and our commitment to delivering outstanding value to our customers.
Microsoft Partner of the Year Finalist Award highlights the value of Motifwork’s capabilities across the Azure cloud platform, helping clients transform their businesses. By embracing the cloud, Companies, whether small or large, in every industry are looking to digital transformation to improve their operations, products, and employee and customer experience.
With Motifworks’ deep Cloud, Azure, and digital innovation expertise, combined with Microsoft’s industry-leading Azure cloud technology, this award recognizes the business value and innovation that our alliance delivers to our joint customers.
By recognizing as the Partner of the Year Finalist, Microsoft has listed Motifworks among the world’s best companies for leading-edge digital solutions. The nominations and awards recognize Microsoft partners that have developed and delivered exceptional Microsoft-based solutions during the past year.
