The priorities that shaped the work

WHAT WE WERE THINKING ABOUT

FY26 wasn't a normal year in the ecosystem. The topics driving Microsoft's agenda showed up in every brief we took on.

Digital Sovereignty

Sovereignty moved from boardroom priority to procurement requirement. We helped partners tell a credible, localized story for buyers navigating data residency, regulatory compliance, and cloud governance.

AI Trust & Security

AI trust became a sales objection before it became a feature. Partners needed to address it in their GTM motion — not just their product roadmap. We helped them get there.

The Frontier Firm

Microsoft's FY26 frame: organizations rebuilding their operating model around AI — not just using it. We helped partners articulate how they enable that transformation for their customers.

Co-sell Activation

Co-sell at scale means partners and Microsoft field sellers need a shared story and a shared motion. That's the work we do. From JVP development to sales enablement kits to Marketplace activation.

We didn’t just talk about the Frontier

OUR OPERATING MODEL

“Access to AI won’t be the advantage for much longer.
How the work is designed around it will be.”

MICROSOFT, FY26

We took this seriously not as a positioning statement, but as an operating principle. Here's what that looked like in practice in FY26.

HOW WE OPERATED IN FY26


  • AI-assisted campaign production — faster creative iteration, better brief-to-output fidelity, without sacrificing editorial standards

  • Partner Center API integration — lead flow connected directly into the Microsoft partner ecosystem infrastructure

  • Workshops at the speed of the market — offer development and joint messaging workshopping cycles tightened as partner priorities shifted mid-year
