BURNABY, British Columbia — [July 27, 2026] — Microserve, a Canadian provider of information technology solutions and services, is proud to announce that it has been selected as a finalist in two prestigious categories at the second annual CRN Best of the Channel Awards.

Microserve has been named a finalist in the following categories:

  • Best Solution Provider Team of the Year
  • Best Solution Provider of the Year

Presented by CRN, a brand of The Channel Company, the Best of the Channel Awards recognize the outstanding accomplishments of visionary leaders, high-performing teams and exceptional companies throughout the information technology channel.

Being selected as a finalist in two categories represents an important milestone for Microserve and reflects the collective contribution of its employees, customers, technology partners and broader business community.

The dual recognition highlights both the strength of Microserve’s organization and the people whose expertise, collaboration and customer commitment help the company deliver meaningful technology outcomes.

Recognition of Microserve’s Team and Organization

The Best Solution Provider Team of the Year award recognizes an outstanding group of executives and leaders at an MSP, value-added reseller, systems integrator, consultancy or other solution provider organization for excellence in business leadership.

Microserve’s selection as a finalist in this category reflects the strength of its collaborative leadership model and the organization-wide effort required to support customers through an increasingly complex technology landscape.

The Best Solution Provider of the Year award recognizes a solution provider for overall excellence in business performance and technology expertise during the previous 12 months.

Recognition in this category underscores Microserve’s continued focus on helping organizations align their technology environments with their operational requirements, business priorities and long-term goals.

Together, the two finalist designations recognize both the capabilities of Microserve as an organization and the people responsible for delivering its services, solutions and customer experiences.

A Shared Achievement Across the Microserve Community

This recognition belongs to the entire Microserve community, from employees working directly with customers to the technical, operational, sales, service delivery and administrative teams supporting each engagement.

It also reflects the trust placed in Microserve by its customers and the collaborative relationships the company has developed with technology manufacturers, distributors and other channel partners.

“These finalist selections are especially meaningful because they recognize Microserve at both the organizational and team levels. They reinforce our commitment to working collaboratively, delivering meaningful outcomes and continually improving the experience we provide to our customers.” said **Heather Schaan,** President and COO of Microserve.

Celebrating Leadership and Innovation Across the IT Channel

The second annual CRN Best of the Channel Awards celebrate companies and individuals helping shape the future of the technology channel through innovation, leadership, collaboration and customer commitment.

The awards recognize accomplishments across both individual and company categories, creating a platform to spotlight organizations and professionals making a measurable impact throughout the technology ecosystem.

According to CRN, the finalists represent organizations and leaders demonstrating innovation, exceptional leadership and a strong commitment to their partners and customers.

Finalists were selected through an awards process designed to recognize excellence across the channel and to highlight the companies, teams and individuals setting high standards for business performance, technology capabilities, partnership development and customer success.

Microserve’s inclusion among the 2026 finalists places the company alongside technology organizations from across the industry that are helping customers navigate changing business requirements, growing cybersecurity concerns, cloud adoption, workplace transformation, infrastructure modernization and other critical technology priorities.

Looking Ahead to the Awards Ceremony

Winners of the 2026 CRN Best of the Channel Awards will be announced and honoured during an awards ceremony on:

  • Date: Tuesday, October 13, 2026
  • Venue: Fox Theatre
  • Location: 660 Peachtree Street NE, Atlanta, Georgia 30308

The ceremony will bring together finalists, technology leaders, solution providers, vendors, distributors, partners and other members of the IT channel community to celebrate the accomplishments of the 2026 award recipients.

Attendees may purchase individual tickets or attend as part of a group. Table options offered by the event organizer include full tables, half tables and recruited-partner tables designed to bring technology companies and solution providers together.

All attendees, including finalists, are required to hold an individual event ticket.

Continuing the Commitment to Customer Success

As Microserve celebrates this recognition, the company remains focused on the work that made the finalist selections possible: listening to customers, understanding their operational challenges and delivering technology solutions that support their objectives.

The technology needs of Canadian organizations continue to evolve. Businesses and public-sector organizations are managing expanding cybersecurity risks, increasingly distributed workplaces, complex cloud environments, growing data requirements and rising expectations for reliable and responsive technology services.

Addressing these challenges requires more than individual technologies. It requires experienced people, effective planning, dependable execution and long-term partnerships.

Microserve’s finalist recognition reflects the importance of bringing these elements together to help customers make informed technology decisions and generate meaningful business value from their investments.

The company extends its appreciation to its employees, customers and partners for contributing to this achievement.
