As we approach the end of 2025, it’s time for Sitecore’s MVP nomination season, marking the opportunity to aim for the prestigious Sitecore 2026 MVP title. In this blog post, I’d like to reflect on my contributions and achievements within the Sitecore community since November 2025.

Let’s take a closer look at my Sitecore contributions for 2025:

Sitecore blogs


Founder of Sitecore User Group (SUG) Kolkata

I had the privilege of founding SUG Kolkata, a dedicated platform to bring together the Sitecore community in a spirit of collaboration and knowledge sharing. Our goal is to create opportunities for learning, networking, and exploring various aspects of the Sitecore platform. Through presentations and discussions, we aim to connect Sitecore enthusiasts and professionals alike.

I am immensely grateful to L&G Consultancy for sponsoring SUG Kolkata . I would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Arjun Arora (Organizer), Biswajit Nayak (Member), and Chandan Kumar (Member) for their unwavering support in making this initiative a success.

This year, we organized 19 webinars. For more information, please visit the SUG Kolkata Event Page.

Additionally, you can find recordings of all our events on the SUG Kolkata YouTube Channel.

We have organized the following webinars through SUGKolkata:

Sharing Posts on Social Media About Sitecore

I actively engage with the Sitecore community across platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, and the Sitecore Community Slack channel, where I share suggestions and solutions based on my knowledge and experience.

I also participate in various Sitecore events, promoting them on social media to increase awareness and keep the community informed about Sitecore-related announcements.

With a network of around 2K followers on LinkedIn, my Sitecore-related posts generate an average of 3K–4K impressions per month, reflecting my commitment to contributing and connecting with the wider Sitecore community.




Active Participation on Slack

I have been an active member of the Sitecore Community Slack channel, consistently engaging in discussions and contributing to the community.

As part of my efforts, I share blogs on the Slack Blogfeed channel, provide updates about relevant webinars, and actively contribute valuable insights to promote knowledge sharing and collaboration within the community.

Sitecore MVP Mentorship Program

I joined the Sitecore Mentor Program and had the opportunity to mentor two exceptional talents within the Sitecore community: Arjun Arora and Chandan Kumar. It was a rewarding experience to guide them, helping them develop their skills and encouraging their contributions to the community. Through this mentorship, I was able to support their growth, and together, we worked towards empowering them to make meaningful contributions for the greater good of the Sitecore ecosystem. 

Objectives for 2026

In 2026, my focus is on expanding my expertise in Sitecore AI and other Sitecore SaaS products, enabling me to deliver more robust and innovative solutions. 

Aligned with my passion for knowledge sharing, I aim to create valuable resources to assist community members on similar journeys. This includes contributing to discussions, sharing insights, and actively participating in Sitecore User Group (SUG) events.

Additionally, I aspire to go beyond being a speaker by taking on the responsibility of organizing SUG Kolkata webinars. This initiative reflects my commitment to fostering community engagement and providing a platform for Sitecore enthusiasts to connect and exchange knowledge.

In summary, my objectives for 2026 center on:

  • Exploring Sitecore's composable digital experience strategy.
  • Sharing knowledge through blogs, webinars, and community events.
  • Actively participating in Sitecore events.
  • Organizing SUG Kolkata to strengthen community collaboration.

These goals reflect my dedication to driving innovation and contributing meaningfully to the Sitecore community.
