Unicorne recognized with MVP Infrastructure – NAMER Award at Pax8 Beyond 2026
Unicorne was honoured at Pax8 Beyond 2026 with the MVP Infrastructure – NAMER Award (North America), a recognition presented during the Monday Mainstage ceremony in Salt Lake City alongside the Pax8 Executive Team.
The award marks an important milestone for Unicorne and reflects the company’s continued work helping organizations build, modernize and manage cloud infrastructure that can support real business growth.

A recognition of cloud infrastructure expertise
For Unicorne, infrastructure has always been more than a technical foundation. It is what allows organizations to move faster, improve reliability, control costs and prepare for what comes next, from modernization to AI-enabled workloads.
The MVP Infrastructure – NAMER Award recognizes the strength of that work across North America. It also highlights Unicorne’s growing role as a cloud infrastructure and managed services partner, particularly in complex AWS environments where strategy, execution and long-term operational discipline all need to come together.
From architecture and modernization to managed services, FinOps and cloud strategy, Unicorne’s work is focused on helping customers make better decisions about their cloud environments and build infrastructure that is more resilient, more scalable and easier to manage over time.
A proud moment for the Unicorne team
“We are honoured to receive the MVP Infrastructure – NAMER Award from Pax8,” said Ben Maheux, VP of Growth at Unicorne. “This recognition is a proud moment for our entire team. It reflects the discipline, technical expertise and customer focus our people bring to every engagement. We are grateful to Pax8 for this recognition, and to our partners at AWS for their continued collaboration as we help organizations build stronger, smarter and more resilient cloud infrastructure.”
This award also speaks to the people behind the work: the cloud architects, engineers, FinOps specialists and managed services teams who support customers every day. Their role is not only to deliver infrastructure projects, but to help organizations make sense of increasingly complex cloud environments and turn that complexity into something practical, secure and sustainable.
Celebrating partner impact at Beyond 2026
Held in Salt Lake City from June 7 to 9, Beyond 2026 brought Pax8 partners together for three days of learning, community and innovation. The event featured keynote presentations, business insights and custom-built breakout sessions designed to help partners strengthen their role in the evolving technology ecosystem.
During the conference, Pax8 presented 20 partner awards recognizing organizations that are creating meaningful impact through cloud adoption, customer success and their relationship with Pax8 and its Marketplace.
“Our partners continue to impress us with their relentless innovation and commitment to delivering transformative cloud and AI solutions to SMBs,” said Nick Heddy, President and Chief Commerce Officer at Pax8. “We are proud to recognize their dedication to empowering customers with technologies that drive meaningful business growth and success.”
The momentum continues
The Pax8 Beyond award comes at an important time for Unicorne. After being named Canada Rising Star Consulting Partner of the Year by AWS, this new North American recognition from Pax8 adds to a strong period of growth for the company and its team.
It also reflects where the market is going. Cloud infrastructure is no longer just a technical layer. It is tied directly to performance, cost control, security, AI readiness and the ability to move faster without creating more complexity.
For Unicorne, the focus remains clear: help customers build cloud environments that are solid enough for today’s operations and flexible enough for what comes next.
This award is a proud moment. It is also fuel for the road ahead.
