Microsoft announces 10 new categories, a new date and a new venue for the 2011 Partner Awards
Microsoft New Zealand announced 10 new categories, a new date and a new venue for its 2011 Partner Awards today.
A press release from the company revealed that the new categories include desktop deployment solution of the year, Windows Azure platform solution of the year, Windows Phone solution of the year, retailer of the year, software exporter of the year and BizSpark partner of the year, among others.
The categories are designed to recognise the breadth of work conducted by the companies in the Microsoft Partner Network, the release said.
“The technology industry is continually changing with new products and services. It is important to adjust the award categories to represent this,” Microsoft Partner Group director Brent Colbert said.
The new date aligns the Microsoft New Zealand 2011 Partner Awards with the Microsoft Partner Awards, which the company says will give “local award winners the opportunity to compete on the global stage”.
The New Zealand Partner Awards will be held on Thursday 17 November at the Viaduct Event Centre which is currently under construction.
