MVP Tridion 2021
Every year we announce our Tridion Most Valuable Professionals (MVP), an exclusive list of individuals who freely share their knowledge and technical expertise with the Tridion developer community. This year is no different. Before we reveal who made this year's list, let's take a moment to reflect on what it takes to be recognized as a MVP. 
 
The Tridion MVP program – now in its 12th year – recognizes customers, partners, developers and practitioners who have gone above and beyond other community members and contributed their real-world experience to help others implement Tridion technology. This year’s winners were recognized for actively answering questions on the Tridion Stack Exchange, a technical community for developers, and the SDL Community, where they regularly blog, offer insights and tips and contribute to Q&A sessions. The Tridion 2021 MVPs also hosted several training sessions at the Tridion Expert Summit, SDL’s annual global developer event.
So.. who made this year's list? Here they are:

  • Alvin Reyes, Senior Business Architect, SDL
  • Atila Sos, Software Developer, EXLRT
  • Dominic Cronin, Principal Consultant, Cronin Technology
  • Jonathan Williams, Co-founder, Stage Two
  • Marko Milic, Senior Developer, EXLRT
  • Rick Pannekoek, Senior Developer, SDL
  • Sabarish Senthilnathan, Associate Consultant, Content Bloom
  • Velu Arjunan, Sr Technical Consultant, SDL

Commenting on the awards, Arno van Nijnatten, SDL Tridion MVP Product Leader, explained "Our MVPs have continually demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the Tridion community. Despite the many restrictions presented by the pandemic, they’ve volunteered and devoted their free time and knowledge of the platform to helping others. We’re truly thankful for their contributions.”

The Tridion 2021 MVP winners are invited to join the Tridion Bootcamp events where they are given exclusive insight on planned features and capabilities in the Tridion product roadmap. They are also offered regular and direct access to the Tridion research and development team, and invited to contribute to future versions of the platform.

Tridion is an intelligent content platform that helps organizations to create, manage and deliver content to internal and external audiences. It includes two key components that can be deployed together – or independently – on premises, in the cloud or in a hybrid environment. Tridion Sites is a Web Content Management (WCM) platform that centralizes web and mobile sites onto a single platform, connecting people, processes and information across teams, languages, markets and brands for impactful digital experiences across any channel and in any language. Tridion Docs is a multilingual Component Content Management System (CCMS) that facilitates knowledge sharing by making it easier for organizations to author – and publish – structured content. 

If you want to be considered for next year’s Tridion MVP award, join the Tridion community and actively share your expertise throughout the year. Get involved and help others!
