Auckland, New Zealand, December 6th 2021

Microsoft New Zealand has celebrated the outstanding achievements of its Aotearoa partner network at the recent 14th annual Microsoft Partner Awards. Microsoft is delighted to announce that LawVu was a winner in the Emerging SaaS category.

The Microsoft New Zealand Partner Awards recognise innovative partners who are demonstrating inventive use of digital technology, and are open to all Microsoft partners big and small. While 2021 was a challenging year, that didn’t stop Microsoft’s incredible partners from delivering some excellent work for their customers that have helped them transform, boost their resilience or support their customers and all New Zealanders to achieve more. LawVu’s work to support in-house legal teams is a perfect example of this.

The award focused on LawVu’s innovative use of Microsoft Azure to help create the first truly connected legal workspace, empowering in-house legal teams to be more effective, digitally resilient and operate at a higher velocity, all while managing the increasing workloads caused by business and regulatory complexity.

Matt Bostwick, Partner Director at Microsoft New Zealand says, “LawVu is an outstanding example of an innovative, ambitious Kiwi SaaS business, punching well above its weight as its unique tools grow a legion of fans here and overseas. They’re already helping customers around the world manage complex and evolving legal issues, supporting in-house legal teams to work more effectively across their organisations, boost productivity and demonstrate their value. We can’t wait to see what LawVu achieves next – there’s no doubt we’ll be hearing much more from them in future.”

To have LawVu win this award is an honour, especially when featured alongside such incredible emerging SaaS companies, says Chief Marketing Officer Greg Stephenson. “We have a bold mission to make legal better for everyone, and being recognised in this way is validation that we are on the right path. The team has worked incredibly hard to get to where we are today and this award further fuels our ambition”
