Event details
There have been many developments in Copilots, Azure AI Foundry, and other Microsoft cloud technologies from the beginning of the solution eligibility window (June 2024) to present. Does this mean that more recent client solutions will take precedence over client solutions delivered earlier in the eligibility period, before some of these new developments were available?

Hey Kyle,
While it's true that some of the contents found in the eligibility requirements and executive summary section are related specific technologies utilized (with the possibility of some being more recent technologies than others), there are also questions on customer impact, implementation and results - all of which contribute to a great overall submission.

Kyle, the contest rules say not to submit unless you meet all the eligibility criteria.
Also, I would prioritize wins for Microsoft FY25 (and solutions deployed in that timeframe).- cnicholsMay 21, 2025Copper Contributor
bumping - this question isn't about eligibility criteria - knowing that some submissions will receive preference, the question is whether newer solutions with more updated Microsoft solution features will receive preference in the scoring process.
