Microsoft Access MVPs 2026-2027

The annual (re)nomination round of Microsoft MVPs (Most Valuable Professionals) happened in July 2026.

MVPs are independent expert users who are very active in their communities and have direct contact with the product teams at Microsoft. They can act as a bridge between the communities and Microsoft and report bugs and other concerns.

More than 3000 MVPs can be found on Microsoft's MVP website, and you can filter by "Technology Area" such as Access there. However, this is not entirely reliable because some technology assignments are unclear. Our list only shows the 24 MVPs with a clear focus on Access that we currently know of. Since the onboarding processes for the MVP website are not entirely finished, some links may not work yet, and the list might become a little longer.

Compared to last year, there are three new names: Christopher Fennell from the USA, Andrew Richards from the UK, and with Gamal Malak, there is finally the first African MVP for Access ever.
