How to become Sitecore Silver/Gold partner

Question

I am not sure is the right platform for this question or not but I am curious to know about the answer to this question so posting here.

If any Company/Organization wants to be a Sitecore Silver/Gold Partner then What is the process to become a Sitecore Silver/Gold partner? I have some other questions as well regarding the same, I am writing down below:

1. Should they have MVP developers?
2. Any specific criteria company should match like delivered a number of projects successfully in Sitecore, must be MVP, etc.
3. Does the individual developer/contributor can also apply for the partnership or only be a registered organization can apply?

Answer 2

For the exact requirements on becoming a sitecore partner my recommandation would be to contact Sitecore Partner Team directly, available on their portal https://partners.sitecore.com/s/get-help.

From past experience I think one of the requirements on becoming an implementation partner was to have at least two certified sitecore developers in the team. For the gold partnership there are also requirements for successfull number of projects delivered, while becoming platinum partner is to also have MVP developers part of the organization.

Answer 3

According to Sitecore Official, all partners are expected to fulfil these minimum enablement and delivery requirements to ensure customers are receiving the best possible outcomes with their Sitecore solutions.
