Emergence Corporation, branded as MCS Limited in Bermuda, has won the prestigious 2007 Microsoft Business Solutions Caribbean and Latin American Partner of the Year Award.

The company was also named in the Microsoft Dynamics Inner Circle for the fifth consecutive year, an accomplishment earned by few Microsoft partners whose achievements rank them at the top echelon of the Microsoft Dynamics global network of value-added reselling partners.

These awards recognise MCS in an elite group of Microsoft partners whose commitment to customers is reflected in their constant dedication to achieving high levels of customer satisfaction, active pursuit of product and technological advancement, and impressive sales performance.

The awards were presented at the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference 2007, Microsoft's premier annual partner event, which took place in July in Denver, Colorado.

Robert Burns, president of MCS and chairman of Emergence Corporation said: "We are proud to emerge in the Caribbean and Latin American market with international recognition, the business market in specialised jurisdictions like Bermuda and Cayman have evolved to require highly competent skilled professionals who intimately understand the challenges of their clients.

"Being able to provide these resources locally is a strong differentiator for MCS."
