Velir Celebrates Eight 2026 Sitecore MVPs in the Program’s 20th Anniversary Year
Velir is proud to announce that eight exceptional team members have been named 2026 Sitecore Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs), a powerful testament to the depth of Sitecore expertise across our organization. This recognition honors individuals who demonstrate outstanding mastery of Sitecore’s digital experience platform and who actively advance the global Sitecore community through thought leadership, mentorship, and knowledge sharing.
Now in its 20th year, the Sitecore MVP program recognizes a select group of professionals who rise above thousands of Sitecore experts worldwide. In 2026, just 213 MVPs were named across three categories—Technology, Strategy, and Ambassador—representing the very best in the Sitecore ecosystem. Velir’s MVPs span all three categories, underscoring the breadth and impact of our team’s expertise.
Deepening Our Impact Through the Sitecore Velocity Program
Velir’s leadership within the Sitecore ecosystem extends beyond individual recognition. In 2025, Velir became the first partner in the Sitecore Velocity Program, an elite initiative designed to accelerate innovation and deliver greater value to Sitecore customers. Through this program, Velir collaborates closely with Sitecore to influence product direction, pilot emerging capabilities, and help clients adopt advanced digital experience strategies faster and more effectively.
Celebrating Our MVPs
At Velir, innovation and continuous learning aren’t just values, they’re how we operate. Our Sitecore MVPs embody this mindset by sharing insights at industry events, contributing original thinking to the community, and helping clients unlock the full power of Sitecore to deliver meaningful, high-impact digital experiences. This includes advancing solutions like VXA, Velir’s SitecoreAI Build Accelerator, which helps organizations move faster from strategy to execution by accelerating AI-powered experiences. Their recognition reflects not only individual excellence, but also Velir’s collective commitment to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with Sitecore.
"We’re honored to see our employees recognized through the Sitecore MVP program. With the evolution of SitecoreAI, our team has embraced the platform and led the charge in developing applications for the Sitecore Marketplace, while actively sharing thought leadership through blogs, community Slack channels, Symposium presentations, and the New England Sitecore User Group. Earning eight MVP awards in 2026 reflects the depth of Sitecore expertise and innovation across Velir. As a longstanding Sitecore Platinum Partner, we’re excited to continue pushing what’s possible for our clients and helping shape the future of the Sitecore ecosystem."
