Sunrise Technologies is proud to be a recurring member of the prestigious Microsoft Inner Circle, an exclusive group that represents the top 1% of Microsoft Business Applications partners worldwide. This recognition reflects our long-standing commitment to excellence, innovation, and strategic alignment with Microsoft.

A Global Standard of Excellence

To be named to the Inner Circle, Microsoft partners must consistently deliver outstanding customer outcomes, demonstrate deep industry expertise, and drive digital transformation through the Microsoft Cloud. Year after year, Sunrise has met and exceeded these standards.

As a result, Sunrise has earned a seat at the Inner Circle table—participating in strategic summits and private briefings with Microsoft executives, shaping the future of Dynamics 365, Power Platform, and AI.

Sunrise’s multi-year recognition spans over 15 years of strategic growth and alignment with Microsoft since 2009.

Why It Matters

Being part of Microsoft’s Inner Circle is about more than sales—it’s about trust, impact, and shared vision. Microsoft chooses partners who:

  • Deliver measurable value with Dynamics 365 and Power Platform
  • Invest in intellectual property, like our Sunrise 365 suite
  • Collaborate closely on AI innovation and Copilot integration
  • Drive digital transformation in retail, manufacturing, and distribution

This recognition highlights Sunrise as a strategic advisor, not just a systems integrator.
