A game developer from Warrington has been presented with the 2021 Microsoft Most Valuable Professional award in recognition of his exceptional technical community leadership.

A recent addition to the growing engineering team at Sumo Warrington, Matt Jones has been recognised for his work running the “C# on Discord” Community, a forum which has over 23,000 members.

The awards celebrate, honour and thank top-notch technology experts making outstanding contributions to their communities, with individuals from around the world being recognised as MVPs. Recipients have an unstoppable urge to get their hands on new, exciting technologies and – most importantly – love to share their knowledge with others.
