The company was recognized as Rising Star Distributor Partner of the Year in EMEA at the AWS Partner Awards
Arrow Electronics, a global technology provider, has earned the 2025 Geography and Global AWS Partner Award, which recognizes partners around the world who help their customers drive innovation and build solutions on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Arrow received the Rising Star Distributor Partner of the Year EMEA award, which recognizes distributors who have recently embarked on their journey as an AWS distributor and have demonstrated strong momentum in helping drive the businesses of diverse AWS partners.
Presented during the Partner Awards Gala at AWS re:Invent 2025, the Geographic and Global AWS Partner Awards recognize a broad range of AWS partners who have focused on specialization, innovation and collaboration over the past year. The Geo and Global AWS Partner Awards recognize partners whose business models continue to evolve and thrive on AWS as they support their customers. Arrow's contribution in EMEA has focused on advancing cloud transformation through scalable initiatives, technical support and close collaboration with partners and customers.
“Being recognized by AWS is a tremendous achievement for Arrow,” said Nick Bannister, president of Arrow enterprise computing solutions business in EMEA. “This recognition highlights the impact of our innovative programs and partnerships across EMEA as we continue to accelerate cloud transformation.”
The Geography and Global AWS Partner Awards were a self-nomination process across multiple award categories, awarded both geographically and globally. All AWS Partners were invited to participate and apply. The proposals received were then examined by an independent commission, Canalys, and selected with particular reference to success stories among customers.
Additionally, there were many data-driven award categories, which were evaluated by a unique set of metrics that measured AWS partners' performance over the past year. Canalys audited the datasets used to ensure that all metrics and calculations were objective and accurate. The finalists represented the top three AWS partners in each category.
The AWS Partner Network (APN) is a global program focused on helping partners innovate, accelerate their journey to the cloud, and unlock the power of AWS.
