🏅 Winner – Microsoft AI-scape Rooms
AI-Scape Rooms: Gamified Demos Powered by Microsoft Copilot & Power Platform
We mixed immersive storytelling, escape-room excitement, and cutting-edge AI to develop the world’s first AI-scape rooms—interactive demo experiences designed to showcase Microsoft technology in a hands-on, unforgettable way. This immersive product experience showcased the best of creative problem-solving and storytelling through Microsoft Power Apps, Power Automate, M365 Copilot and Copilot Studio.
- In “AI-scape the Professor Emporium”, players used Microsoft 365 Copilot to outwit puzzles and escape a quirky inventor’s workshop.
- In “Adventures in Low Code and the Temporal Incident Burera,” built with Power Platform, teams became time travelers on a mission to save four lost agents using Power Pages, Canvas Apps, Power Automate, and Copilot Studio.
- Coming soon- new challenges are already in the works to get users hands on with Azure AI and Fabric!
These experiences were featured at Microsoft Ignite and required a truly multidisciplinary approach—animation, script writing, game design, world-building, and more. A truly cross-border innovation, this experience was brought to life through the combined talents of Valorem Reply US, WM Reply UK, WM Reply Italy, and WM Reply Germany.

🥈 Finalist - Microsoft Vatican Digital Experience
Digital Twin of St. Peter’s Basilica – A Collaboration with the Vatican for the 2025 Jubilee
In partnership with the AI for Good team, we helped bring one of the world’s most iconic landmarks—St. Peter’s Basilica—into the digital age. As part of a global initiative tied to the 2025 Jubilee, this first-of-its-kind experience uses Azure, photogrammetry, and immersive storytelling to create a high-fidelity 3D digital twin of the Basilica.
Visitors around the world can now explore the Basilica's intricate details—from soaring domes to ancient mosaics—through a beautifully designed web platform that blends audio, video, time-lapse models, and AI-powered preservation insights.
Beyond virtual tourism, the platform serves a greater purpose: preserving the Basilica’s architectural legacy through AI-driven structural analysis and offering global access to its history, culture, and spiritual significance.
This groundbreaking project exemplifies the intersection of tradition and technology, redefining how people experience sacred spaces and ensuring their stories endure for generations to come. A true testament to our long-standing alliance with Microsoft, this cross-country collaboration was made possible through the work of the Microsoft AI for Good Lab, Microsoft Azure Innovation team, Paris based architectural photogrammetry and drone experts Iconem and the expertise of Valorem Reply and Sagepath Reply teams.
🏆 Best Teamwork
Awarded to projects delivered through a positive team spirit, engagement, and collaboration. This category recognizes Reply companies who’s teams seamlessly worked together to achieve transformative and streamlined change for our customers.
🏅 Winner- Recycling Vendor and Customer Portal
In partnership with a global leader in paper and forest product manufacturing, we developed a comprehensive digital portal to modernize the recycling management process. Built as a custom React app integrated with Microsoft Dynamics and the customer’s internal systems, this portal gives vendors and customers real-time access to transactions, claims, payments, and shipping schedules—all from one centralized platform. The effort spanned six Reply companies and over two years, requiring tight coordination across time zones and specialties: Valorem Reply US, Cluster Reply Brazil, Concept Reply US, Light Reply US, Sagepath Reply US, and Concept Reply Italy.
This is a model of how team spirit, engagement, and collaboration drive digital transformation.
