[In Our Programs] Back to OVHcloud Engage, the collaborative event that builds the cloud of tomorrow

The first edition of the OVHcloud Engage event took place on Thursday, April 19th, just a stone’s throw from the Champs Elysées. OVHcloud Engage is a free event, dedicated to members of the OVHcloud ecosystem (Open Trusted Cloud, Startup Program, Partner Program and Marketplace) to collaboratively build the cloud of tomorrow.

he purpose of this event was to present to our ecosystem a roadmap of our upcoming products and solutions, and to discuss them during several networking sessions and questions/answers with the audience in person and remotely. Thanks to these feedbacks, our teams will be able to adapt the roadmaps so that they are as close as possible to the expectations of our ecosystem.

To thank and reward committed players in our ecosystem, OVHcloud teams have decided to initiate an award ceremony:

Startup Program category

Startup of the Year 2021 in AI: Customs Bridge 

Startup of the Year 2021 in HealthTech: Dolipharm 

Startup of the Year 2021 in Sustainability & CSR: HD Rain 

We wanted to reward Customs Bridge, Dolipharm and HD Rain for their commitment to the programme, through communication actions (events, interviews, use case etc.) but also for their results and their success in fiscal year 2021.

Marketplace category

Vendor of the Year 2021: Mise Sur Orbite 

The OVHcloud Marketplace showcases our ecosystem, with more than 260 solutions, service offerings and development tools for all uses. On the occasion of OVHcloud Engage, it was important for us to reward Mise Sur Orbite, a partner vendor, for its involvement in the program and the OVHcloud ecosystem but also to congratulate the teams for the growth of the company.

Partner Program category

Best Collaboration of the Year 2021: Factor FX 

Rising Star of the Year 2021: Sopra Steria 

Standout Partner of the Year 2021: Capgemini 

The Partner Program enables each organization to leverage the OVHcloud to create solutions and services for their customers, to be able to innovate and to give their businesses a sustainable advantage in a competitive, high-growth market. It was important for us to give special thanks to 3 of our partners, with whom we share common values and commitments. Factor FX, an exemplary partner who has been participating and contributing to all of our initiatives for many years; Sopra Steria, who has always shown a strong commitment and adapted its market strategy to our side; and Capgemini, whose teams' commitment, particularly thanks to numerous training sessions, is remarkable and who also has significant references for supporting the migration to OVHcloud

“We thank all our customers and partners who made this event a success. The many shared feedback not only crystallised the technical challenges of our ecosystem in the short and medium term, but also confirmed the collaborative dynamics that we want to cultivate. It is through these recurring exchanges that we can continue to build open, reversible and accessible solutions for as many people as possible,” says Caroline Comet-Fraigneau, VP France, Benelux and Afrique at OVHcloud.
