Momentum Taps Experienced Microsoft MVPs to Support Global Microsoft Teams Strategy

ATLANTA, GA - October 1, 2024 - Momentum, a leading global managed services provider, is pleased to announce the appointment of two recognized leaders in Microsoft technology. Mark Vale will serve as Momentum's new Global Architect while Satish Upadhyaya will act as Teams Enterprise Architect. Adding decades of combined solution expertise supports Momentum’s ongoing mission to deliver industry-leading Microsoft Teams solutions across the globe.

Throughout his extensive career, Vale has developed a deep knowledge of Microsoft technologies, particularly in unified communications and collaboration. Meanwhile, Upadhyaya has over a decade of experience as a Microsoft 365 architect, giving him a strong understanding of Microsoft Teams and the telecommunications sector. Momentum expects the leadership of these two professionals to provide immense value in supporting Microsoft Teams deployments, integrations, and other advanced communication services.

Momentum’s commitment to its strategic vision solidifies the company as the partner of choice for organizations seeking to unlock the full potential of Microsoft Teams and modernize their communications infrastructure with a trusted, globally recognized managed services provider.

Upadhyaya and Vale have both achieved the distinguished status of Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP), recognized both for their exceptional contributions to the technical community and their commitment to excellence. Rick Garcia, Momentum EVP Product and Marketing, says, “This perfectly aligns with our mission to deliver the most advanced Microsoft Teams solutions to enterprise customers across the globe.”

"We recognize that the best businesses succeed because they have the right people in the right roles," explained Todd Zittrouer, CEO.
