Microsoft Georgia & E-Space Announce Cooperation

Microsoft Georgia and E-Space Ltd. announced their cooperation this week, to power their solutions using the Microsoft Azure platform.

E-Space, the first Georgian company dedicated to supporting electric vehicles and technologies, will become a BizSpark member and will be running its business on the Microsoft Azure platform. Microsoft BizSpark is a global program that helps startups succeed by giving them free access to Microsoft Azure cloud services, software, and support.

“We are delighted to announce our partnership with Microsoft,” says George Keshelashvili, CEO, E-Space. “Such partnership comes at the right time for us, as the BizSpark program will help us with our IT infrastructure environment, enabling us to run software on a secure and scalable platform, allowing us to save on hosting and deployment of services. With access to Microsoft Azure via BizSpark, we can efficiently support the demand for resources of E-space’s rapidly growing business”.

Founded in 2016 in Tbilisi, Georgia, E-Space is the first and only Georgian company dedicated to the support and promotion of electric vehicles in the country, and the introduction and implementation of these new technologies. It is the only company to own and operate a public charging station network in Georgia, and it aims to offer its clients a wide-range of electric vehicles, including cars, motorcycles and scooters.

“More and more entrepreneurs are working with the Microsoft Azure cloud platform and they are making the right choice,” says Nikoloz Doborjginidze, General Manager at Microsoft Georgia. “The flexibility of the service allows users to scale resources depending on real traffic needed and to manage their business effectively. Further, there is no need to spend resources on technical support of the infrastructure as this is done by Microsoft. As a result, these resources can be invested into the main thing – business development”.

Microsoft is the leading platform and productivity company for the “mobile-first, cloud-first” world, its mission to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.

Microsoft Georgia was founded in 2010 and currently employs eight persons. It describes Georgia as a small country, “the success of which depends on a knowledge-based economy”. Microsoft supports public, private and civil sectors to develop capabilities. We believe that innovative technologies make it competitive in the country's economy, business, and education system.
