NEW YORK, May 23, 2019 — LumApps, the leading social intranet for the enterprise, today announced it has been selected as one of only ten European startups to join Microsoft’s Partner eXperience (PAX) program. LumApps will also be participating in Microsoft’s Inspire Conference 2019 in Las Vegas.

LumApps is the leading enterprise social intranet designed to connect, inform and engage employees. Our digital workplace helps organizations break down communication silos to build stronger, more collaborative relationships between individual employees and departments.

Already a premier Microsoft ISV partner, LumApps currently integrates with Sharepoint Online for document management, Microsoft Teams for real-time collaboration, Outlook 365 for email and calendar, and Azure Active Directory for central and secure user management. Through this new partnership, companies can now manage all their Microsoft Office 365 communications and workflows inside of LumApps Social Intranet to enable greater productivity across an enterprise organization.
 

This announcement comes on the heels of significant market momentum for LumApps in EMEA. The company has seen triple-digit growth< year over year since 2016. The company recently appointed Microsoft veteran Alain Bernard as Chief Revenue Officer to accelerate the company’s go-to-market strategy in EMEA.

The partnership will also facilitate product alignment between Microsoft Office 365 and LumApps, ensuring future products can integrate seamlessly to provide the best user experience possible. This global partnership represents the next phase in the company’s strategic partnership with Microsoft, offering enterprises a deeper integration with the Microsoft Office 365 suite
