Here’s what that actually means for our clients

We’re delighted to announce that we’ve recently been recognised as a Snowflake Premier Partner. It’s something we’re really proud of, because as much as we love a new shiny badge on our lapel, what makes us extra proud is that being a premier partner isn’t a status that you apply for. It’s earned over time, through the work, the delivery, and the relationship. All of the above being something we are wholly dedicated to as a team here at Lumilinks.

Being awarded Premier Partner Status is the culmination of multiple years of hard work across technical teams, sales and marketing. It's a real testament to the partnership's open doors for training, product development and growth, and I look forward to building towards an elite partnership next! - Aidan Summerville, Head of Data.

A partnership that actually works

From day one, our relationship with Snowflake has been pretty straightforward, and symbiotic. We build things that work in the real world, and Snowflake in turn provide the platform that makes it possible. We’re constantly working together on:

• Customer solutions
• Product ideas
• What’s actually landing in the market

That feedback loop is what makes the difference to making a real-change industry wide, and helping us problem solve, build and grow our solutions for our customer base, day-in day-out.

What it means for our customers

To tell the short version, what this means for our customer is that they are in very safe, well governed hands! As a team, we know the platform inside out. We say this with confidence because we’ve spent a lot of time building on Snowflake.

Not just technically, but in terms of:

• What works
• What doesn’t
• Where things get complicated
• How to keep things simple

That means less trial and error, and faster time to value. We work closely with the Snowflake team to run events, gather feedback from the end users and exec decision makers. That’s what helps us to keep a laser focus on building data products that are making an incredible impact on businesses industry wide.

What's really in it for you…

You get earlier access to what’s coming

Being a Premier Partner means we’re closer to what Snowflake is building next. We get visibility into:

• New features
• New capabilities
• Where the platform is heading

Meaning so do you, and we can help you make better decisions, earlier.

Stronger support when it matters

When things need to move quickly, relationships matter. Working closely with Snowflake teams, means we have access to:

• Faster answers
• Better alignment
• Less back and forth

Everything stays practical

This is the most important one. There’s a lot of noise around data and AI right now.

What we care about is making sure:

• The data is right
• The outputs are useful
• The work actually delivers something meaningful

That’s always been our focus, and it doesn’t change.

A shared way of thinking

What’s really made our partnership work is a shared approach. Snowflake builds for scale, governance, and flexibility. We focus on making that usable for real teams, in real businesses.

That combination is what allows customers to bring data together properly, build things that last, and actually use what they’ve built.

It’s that shared way of thinking that is driving the new wave of how we work. We are focusing on building connections and community in the data world. We want to build, together.

So, thank you! (and what’s next)

"I am incredibly proud of our engineers. This tier isn't just handed out; it’s earned through rigorous certifications and proven successful deployments. This partnership recognises their hard work while giving them priority access to Snowflake's advanced training, dedicated support, and beta features." Richard Gardner, CTO, Lumilinks

This recognition is down to the work that’s been done across our teams and with our customers. And to Snowflake, for being a genuinely collaborative partner along the way. We’re really excited about what’s next.

More products, use cases and practical ways to turn data into something useful.

Because practical makes powerful.
