ANS is very privileged and proud to have several Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs) in its team in the UK, plus one Regional Director and one Fast Track Recognised Solution Architect (FTRSA).  

Microsoft gives the MVP award to exceptional community leaders for their technical expertise, leadership, and commitment to sharing their knowledge with others in the community. And it’s not just for a one-off effort. MVPs need to continually use their expertise to help others and expand the knowledge of the tech community.  

In return, MVPs get extremely close ties to Microsoft with a direct line into its product group and engineering teams, where the MVPs provide insights and feedback on the Microsoft technology in action. This gives ANS customers invaluable access to the latest Microsoft technology stack and best practices. 

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be profiling each of the MVPs below and bringing you their stories:  

Dan Barber, Business Applications MVP 

Head of Business Applications at ANS  

Keith Atherton, Business Applications MVP

Chris Huntingford, Fast Track Recognised Solution Architect (FTRSA) and Power Applications MVP

Chris is one of only 51 FTRSAs for Power Apps in the world. 

Craig White, Business Applications MVP

Kyle Hill, Microsoft Regional Director and Business Applications MVP

With less than 4,000 MVPs worldwide and only 254 in the whole of the UK, having as many as we do at ANS puts us in an extremely strong position to bring the very best of Microsoft technology and know-how to our customers.
