Trofeo and NextPath partner to deliver integrated Microsoft tech and staffing solutions

Two Tampa-based companies—Trofeo, a Microsoft cloud services provider, and NextPath Career Partners, a national recruiting firm—have formalized a strategic partnership to offer unified technology and staffing services to clients.

The collaboration combines Trofeo’s experience with Microsoft Azure and cloud implementation with NextPath’s expertise in talent placement for IT and professional roles.

Trofeo will serve as the solution delivery arm, offering services such as cloud strategy, AI readiness, data governance, Microsoft 365 enablement and cybersecurity consulting. The firm’s consultants are 100% Microsoft-certified.

NextPath will provide permanent and contract-based recruiting support to help organizations staff up, once services are in place. This includes roles such as cloud engineers, solution architects, IT project managers and cybersecurity analysts.

Both companies are based in Tampa and plan to expand their joint offerings regionally and nationally, according to a statement.
