SilverBridge has been selected as one of only 20 Microsoft partners to attend and present at a Microsoft Middle East and Africa (MEA) partners event.

The event takes place on 15 and 16 October in Dublin, and gives the African provider of insurance software solutions be given an opportunity to showcase its offerings.

“SilverBridge has continued to work closely with Microsoft as a strategic partner. This has resulted in our insurance product suite, Exergy, being selected as a Microsoft Prioritised Co-Sell Ready solution for the MEA region. This influenced the decision to include SilverBridge at this event and is yet another exciting development with our partnership.” says Lee Kuyper, group COO at SilverBridge Holdings.

In addition to presenting their Co-Sell Ready offers and solutions, the event gives invited partners the opportunity to meet the Microsoft SMB and Corporate sales teams as well as participate in business exchange and opportunity-sharing sessions.

“With more than two decades’ of experience in the insurance technology industry, SilverBridge has continually evolved to deliver on market requirements. More recently, we embraced a cloud-first approach that aligns with what Microsoft is doing globally to ensure our customers in Africa are ready for the new digital age, and what it has to offer. Our partnership with Microsoft not only enables us to create the best technology solutions for our industry using their platform, but also to take these solutions to market together reaching a range of companies that offer insurance in the MEA markets.”

This is not only a great opportunity for SilverBridge to get exposure to several insurance companies and banks that Microsoft work with, but also to position the organisation to key senior people within Microsoft. Additionally, the Microsoft Corporate sales team will get an opportunity to better understand what SilverBridge has to offer in order to identify where their relevant customers have identified needs that match these solutions.
