Top MSPs are pulling away on security, recovery and AI readiness, and most of them build their business around one or two industries.
At MSP Summit on September 30, 2026, PartnerOptimizer CEO Dina Moskowitz and ProdigyTeks CEO Paco Lebron presented new ecosystem intelligence on what sets top MSPs apart. NeuralPartner analyzed the 2026 MSP 501 winners and 46,000+ MSPs across the broader sector, tracking change from August 2025 to September 2026. The data was mined the same month it went on stage.
AI adoption moved faster among top MSPs over the past year than any other signal we track. The emerging MSPs behind them are already keeping pace.
