Congratulations to 2018 Microsoft IMPACT award winners

2018 IMPACT award winners

Each year, Microsoft hosts the IMPACT Awards to celebrate innovation in technology and to recognize the outstanding work their partners have done in delivering transformative solutions for businesses of all sizes, and for their impact in the markets in which we work and live, all across Canada.

Microsoft Canada partners are foundational to the company’s business – certainly today – but perhaps even more so as the company looks to the future, and explores new scenarios, and capabilities that will unlock the incredible market opportunity that exists when it comes to embracing digital transformation.

With a network of 14,000 partners, this ecosystem is driving positive impact across industries and powering Canada’s innovation economy. From retail to finance, and health care to manufacturing, businesses across the country are being transformed by technology fueled by cloud, artificial intelligence, mixed reality and the Internet of Things.
