This week I was privileged to be presented with the Sitecore Technology MVP award for the 6th year in a Row .
There are only 241 MVPs Worldwide and just 8 Technology MVPs in the UK (137 Worldwide), all of which have been awarded for:
“demonstrating outstanding engagement and support for the global Sitecore community”.
It’s a great Community to be involved in and I’ve enjoyed organising and presenting at the Manchester Sitecore User Group over the past year, meeting other Sitecorian’s and sharing my knowledge on this Blog, YouTube, Twitter, SSE and Slack.
You can see all the 2023 MVPs in the Directory here: https://mvp.sitecore.com/Directory
Why become an MVP?
There are many benefits to being an MVP, here are some of them:
- Being viewed as a global Sitecore expert & community leader
- Access to early product release / resources / product teams and kick-off webinars
- Access to MVP discussion forums
- Regional MVP meetings
- MVP Summit after Symposium (insight to product / company strategy)
- Discounts for SUGCON & Symposium
You can read more about the MVP programme here.
Thinking about becoming an MVP?
This is a really useful SSE post on the kind of activities you need to be involved in if you would like to become an Sitecore MVP and this Blog Post is a great resource.
You can also reach out to previous and existing MVPs on Twitter/Slack etc and I’m sure they will help guide you or answer any questions you have.
There is also an mentor programme which may be something to look at if you feel you need further guidance and help on your Journey.
Congrats to all 2023 MVPs and thanks to Sitecore and the MVP Team for their support and assistance over this year. Here’s to another year of Sitecore’ing ?.
