NEW YORK, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Serge Bukhar, Founder and CEO of Atlas Technica, was named as Executive of the Year in the 2026 MSP 501 Special Awards, and Atlas Technica earned the #21 spot on the 2026 MSP 501, the technology industry’s most rigorous and respected ranking of managed service providers worldwide. Atlas Technica, a leading managed service provider (MSP) and strategic technology partner to the alternative investment industry, received the honors at the recent Channel Partners Conference & Expo and MSP Summit held in Orlando, Florida. In a year marked by unprecedented competition and rapid industry transformation, the recognition highlights the financial strength, operational excellence, and innovation that sets Bukhar and the Atlas Technica team apart. 

“I am incredibly honored to be named as the MSP 501 Executive of the Year and pleased to once again be named to this outstanding list of top managed service providers across the globe,” said Serge Bukhar, Chief Executive Officer, Atlas Technica. “I want to recognize my phenomenal team at Atlas for all of their support to help earn these achievements. It is a privilege to be recognized for our work in this space and enjoy celebrating this momentous occasion with all of the winners at the recent gala.”

“The Executive of the Year award represents the pinnacle of leadership excellence in our industry and those who lead top providers recognized on the MSP 501 list,” said Robert DeMarzo, VP Content, Informa Channels, which conducts the MSP 501 survey and awards annually. “This honor celebrates those rare individuals who don’t just manage companies, they transform them. These visionary leaders blend strategic foresight with operational excellence, driving their organizations to new heights while navigating complex market challenges. What truly distinguishes these executives is their ability to balance technological innovation with human-centered leadership, creating cultures where both businesses and people thrive. In today’s rapidly evolving technology landscape, these are the leaders setting new standards for what excellence in managed services truly means.”

The MSP 501 Special Awards represent the highest level of recognition in the managed services sector, honoring exceptional achievements that extend far beyond traditional performance metrics. Unlike standard industry rankings, these prestigious awards are application-based and judged by a distinguished panel of industry leaders, including top global MSPs, renowned analysts, and past award recipients, who evaluate nominees on their transformative impact, innovative contributions, and ability to shape the future of managed services. This award honors an executive who has demonstrated exceptional commitment, creativity, and leadership throughout their career, distinguishing themselves in the managed services and technology channel.

For the past 19 years, the MSP 501 has stood apart from simple revenue rankings by demanding a comprehensive analysis of financial performance, operational efficiency, and business health, making it the gold standard for identifying the world’s best-run managed service providers. The MSP 501 recognizes organizations that demonstrate sustainable growth, recurring revenue strength, profit optimization, and the strategic discipline that defines true industry leadership.
