The Bristol-based managed IT and cyber security specialist received the honour at Pax8’s Beyond EMEA 2026 conference in Copenhagen, held from October 18 to 20.
The awards recognise partners driving significant revenue growth, cloud and AI adoption, and stronger outcomes for small and mid-sized businesses through their work with Pax8 and its technology Marketplace.

“Ultimately, everything comes back to helping our customers feel more confident with technology and giving them the support they need to keep moving forward.”
Nebula provides secure-by-default managed IT, cyber security assurance, Microsoft expertise and AI and automation services. The Bristol company says its relationship-led approach helps organisations reduce risk, work smarter and gain more value from their technology.
Marc Groetelaars, senior vice-president of sales and marketing for Europe at Pax8, said: “Our partners continue to impress us with their relentless innovation and commitment to delivering transformative cloud and AI solutions to SMBs.
“We are proud to recognise their dedication to empowering customers with technologies that drive meaningful business growth and success.”
