Why attend and what attendees say
Why attend
Six reasons to attend
Learn from the people who build the products
Microsoft product leaders, Regional Directors and MVPs present, sit on panels and stay for conversations between sessions.
Full-day tutorials
On 31 May, the day before the conference, experts teach full-day tutorials. Included in the Pass + Tutorial and the Master Pass.
An expo with 85+ booths
Sponsors and partners show their products on an expo floor with four stages. Catering and the longer breaks take place on the expo floor, so conversations happen there.
Panels and one-to-one conversations
Panel discussions and meeting areas leave room for direct questions to Microsoft executives, Regional Directors, MVPs and practitioners.
Come as a team
Many organisations send whole teams: to learn, to meet partners and to spend time together away from the office.
Grow your network
Customers, partners, product teams and community leaders from across Europe, and the ECS Party on the evening of the second day.
