How to increase engagement score

I am building on azure as a startup and we were granted 25k $ last year. The credits are expiring in January and we were aiming for the next round, which requires to spend at least half of the 25k and also complete some other tasks.

We did all that, the only thing that is missing is the engagement score, which is not event shown... I have a 6 App Services, 2 Postgres DBs, 3 VMs, 5 Redis Clusters and more. So I am using Azure extensively... How can I further improve the score so that I can qualify for the next round?

This is really important to us to continue scaling into other countries.

Has anyone achieved a high engagement score and could share their experiences?

Thank you all in advance!

Michael

    @Michael Pisnyachevskiy Greetings!

    The Engagement score measures how actively you’re using Azure and shows the strength of your partnership with Microsoft. The more you build on Azure, the higher your score can go. Only startups with Azure credits of $25,000 or more will see this score in Founders Hub.

    To qualify for an extension of your Azure credits, you'll need to reach the next level based on your current level by meeting the following criteria:

    • Your business must be a verified legal entity.
    • If you received a $25,000 Azure credit offer, at least 50% of those credits must be used.
    • Your business must have a verified domain.
    • You must provide a business contact email.
    • You must submit a product demo video.
    • You must add a new team member to your account.

    Since your account has a strong Engagement score, sign in to the Founders Hub and go to the Home page to complete the tasks listed in your verification checklist.

    Your account will be reviewed about 45 days before your credits expire. If all requirements are met and your account is approved, you’ll automatically receive additional credits and program time.
