ECIF Funding Eligibility
- Jul 28, 2025
Found some information on this:
ECIF Funding is a Microsoft field-led investment, not partner-led. You can contact your PDM or Account team for additional details and they can assess and help as needed.
I am now closing comments on this inquiry as it is solved. Thank you all for being part of the community! 😁
Hi AaronSerraform,
did you reach out to the mail address?
If so did you receive any feedback or information that might be worth sharing? Since I am currently also looking into ECIF Eligibility 🙂
Best regards,
Kevin
Was wondering if either of you get any feedback from the ECIF team? I tried multiple times but in the end they advised us to contact our "Microsoft Internal Contact" which I'm not aware of. Did you get similar advice? If so do you have a Microsoft account manager? How are they assigned? Any information would be helpful!
Thank you in advance.

"Have you received any feedback from the MS or ECIF team? I would like to understand the ECIF program from the beginning, including how we can apply, how to obtain the certification, and any other relevant details. If you have any contact person or information about what steps have been taken so far, please let me know."

This is what was shared with me:
Do you have a customer opportunity that needs unblocking? ECIF funding can help. Partners who provide a SoW with projected Azure Consumed Revenue at a 10:1 ratio can apply for ECIF funding to provide one-on-one training to enhance customer skills and/or the adoption of Azure cloud solutions.
Note: Be sure to allow adequate time in advance of the event to ensure compliance guidelines have been met.
Contact your PDM or Microsoft Field contact relevant to the account for assistance and additional details.Do you have a PDM?
