The award highlights EY’s excellence in delivering impactful, technology-enabled solutions through Microsoft platforms, helping Canadian organizations tackle complex challenges and advance their modernization efforts.

“This recognition reflects the strength of our collaboration with Microsoft and the dedication of our teams that solve real-world problems with practical solutions,” says Doug Carsley, Partner, EY Canada Microsoft Leader. “We’re proud to contribute to Canada’s digital transformation and help organizations embrace AI to move faster, think bigger and lead with confidence.”

The Microsoft Americas Partner of the Year Awards celebrate partners who have created and delivered exceptional Microsoft-based solutions and services over the past year. Honorees are selected from a pool of over 2,000 nominations across categories and countries.

EY’s selection as 2025 Canada (SI) Partner of the Year was part of a broader announcement of achievements. Globally, EY won the Partner Innovation and Social Impact award for Global Advisory and Consulting Services, a distinction as Sustainability Changemaker, the Industry Award for Financial Services, and the IDC MarketScape 2025 Worldwide Artificial Intelligence Services Leader.

As AI becomes embedded across industries, EY is working closely with clients to rethink how intelligence and human judgment intersect. This shift is prompting many organizations to reimagine their operations and signals a move toward becoming Frontier Firms.
