Microsoft Advertising Partner Awards 2025 Nominations open.

The Partner Awards are back! We’re excited to announce that nominations for the Microsoft Advertising Partner Awards are now open. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the awards, celebrating and recognizing the accomplishments of our Elite and Select tier partners across the globe. The recognition period will include work from July 2024 till July 2025.

Award categories for 2025

Our award categories are designed to reflect the depth and breadth of Microsoft Advertising’s solutions and shine a spotlight on the innovative and performance-driven work of our partners worldwide. The categories open for nomination this year are:

  • AI Innovation Award
  • Data Integration Award
  • Emerging Markets Growth Award
  • Marketing with Purpose Award
  • Omnichannel Excellence Award
  • Performance Partner of the Year

All categories and their descriptions are available at MicrosoftAdvertisingAwards.com and in the nomination tool. To streamline submissions this year the Agency, Channel and Curator Partner of the Year are not open to nominations and will be awarded based on submissions in other categories. 

Submit your nominations now

If you’re an Elite or Select Partner, submit your nominations by Thursday, July 3, 2025, at 11:59 PM Pacific Time.

Finalists will be announced in August 2025 on the Microsoft Advertising blog. Regional award winners will be announced in late 2025.

For those in our Partner tier, watch this space for an announcement in the coming months when nominations open again for the Microsoft Advertising Partner Celebration. 

We look forward to reading all that our partners have accomplished with us over the past year.
