Xpand IT, created by two Técnico alumni and member of the IST Spin-off community, became the first Portuguese company to win recognition from Microsoft in the Modernization of Web Applications in the Advanced Specialization of Microsoft Azure.

Microsoft awarded Xpand IT after the Portuguese company ensured compliance with the strict criteria, which include: team qualification and success with the customer. The specialization recognizes the ability of Microsoft partners, and in this particular case, Xpand IT’s success in implementing projects in Azure.

This distinction validates the in-depth knowledge, vast experience and proven expertise of XpandIT in the use of this technology.

Sérgio Viana, Partner & Digital Xperience Lead at Xpand IT, says “we are very proud to receive this distinction, which is extremely relevant in the Microsoft ecosystem”. “It is an achievement of enormous teamwork and another sign of our ability to develop projects in key areas for Microsoft such as Apps & Infra and Data & AI – in any market where we operate”.
