Liquid C2, a business of Cassava Technologies, a global technology leader of African heritage, is proud to announce that its Cloudmania business has won the 2025 Microsoft Partner of the Year Award for Egypt. Cloudmania was honoured among a global field of top Microsoft partners for demonstrating excellence in innovation and implementation of customer solutions based on Microsoft technology.
The Microsoft Partner of the Year Awards recognise partners that have developed and delivered outstanding Microsoft Cloud applications, services, devices, and AI innovation during the past year. Awards are classified in various categories, with honourees chosen from more than 4,600 nominations across over 100 countries. Cloudmania was recognised for providing outstanding solutions and services in Egypt.
“This award is an incredible milestone for Cloudmania. In just one year of operations in Egypt, we’ve built a strong network of partners committed to delivering cloud and AI solutions that empower businesses, accelerate digital transformation, and drive sustainable growth. This recognition underscores our role as the distributor of choice for Microsoft solutions in the Egyptian market and reinforces our commitment to enabling Africa’s digital future,” said Sherif Shaltout, Managing Executive, MENA at Liquid C2.
Since launching in Egypt in 2024, Cloudmania has rapidly built a trusted reputation as a channel-first distributor supporting local managed service providers, system integrators, and independent software vendors. Through strategic initiatives such as its Startup Accelerator Programme, Cloudmania continues to champion innovation by equipping entrepreneurs and small businesses with access to Microsoft’s transformative cloud technologies, training, and go-to-market support.
“Congratulations to all the winners and finalists of the 2025 Microsoft Partner of the Year Awards,” said Nicole Dezen, Chief Partner Officer and Corporate Vice President at Microsoft. “This year, our partners harnessed the transformative power of Microsoft’s Cloud and AI platforms to deliver solutions that redefine innovation. The 2025 honourees exemplify what’s possible when technology and vision unite to empower customers around the world.”
This recognition follows previous wins by Cloudmania in Ethiopia and Côte d’Ivoire, reinforcing its growing influence across the MENA region. It also aligns closely with Cassava’s vision to be the leading digital solutions provider in its chosen markets.
