Back in July, we announced the launch of the first-ever Xero Awards in Canada. This initiative celebrates Xero’s valued accountants, bookkeepers, and app partners by putting them in the spotlight and recognizing their commitment to excellence and ongoing support of the small business sector.

Thank you to each and every one of you who took the time and commitment to submit an entry. Our judges were so impressed by the quality of all submissions and found it incredibly difficult to select just one winner.

Congratulations to our winners

There were 8 trophies up for grabs for the first year of Xero Awards in Canada — 6 of them dedicated to our accountants and bookkeepers and 2 to our app partners.

Thank you to our judges

This year’s categories were reviewed by a panel of 15 judges, inclusive of a cohort of tech and accounting industry leaders. A massive thank you to them for taking the time to review each entry and supporting this community.
