Already this year, Microsoft Teams events have introduced some amazing updates to the world’s favourite UCaaS and collaboration service. Microsoft Ignite, Build, and other popular brand-hosted offerings keep us all on the cutting edge of technology for the new workplace.
Fortunately for those exploring and leveraging the Microsoft ecosystem, there are still opportunities yet to uncover. We’ve still got the incredible Microsoft Inspire to look forward to, as well as a handful of other events either featuring Teams or focusing entirely on the Microsoft platform.
Whether you’re looking for opportunities to return to the real-world event experience, or you want to stock your calendar with more online experiences, you’re in the right place. Here are some of the top virtual and in-person events on our schedule for 2021.
Microsoft Inspire
Microsoft Inspire is one of the biggest events of the year, no matter which part of the Microsoft environment you’re involved with. Inspire follows events like Microsoft Build and Ignite, to provide an insight into some of the new and most exciting opportunities of Microsoft tools. Hosted by speakers like the CEO of Microsoft, Satya Nadella, this event is bound to be a must-see experience.
Microsoft Inspire is a digital event, running between the 14th and 15th of July 2021. The experience will include keynote insights about Microsoft on the cloud, as well as breakout sessions, where you can experience live Q&A sessions with partners, industry leaders and platform builders.
Microsoft Inspire will be equipped with a variety of “theme” sessions to explore, which should include some insights into Microsoft Teams. There’s also a Connection zone if you’re looking for networking opportunities.
Commsverse
The biggest Microsoft Teams conference in the UK, Commsverse is among the first UK conferencing experiences to welcome attendees back to in-person experiences. Running on the 15th and 16th of September 2021, the event will have two main segments to explore, including Microsoft Configuration, and Microsoft Collaboration.
If you want to learn more about how your business can implement Microsoft solutions for end-users, with guidance on everything from integrations to direct routing, Commsverse is the place to be. There are 50 speakers, 40 exhibitors, and 65 sessions to look forward to.
Although the best way to experience Commsverse will be in person, people who won’t be able to attend the UK event can also tune in online. The hybrid experience ensures everyone has a chance to learn, grow, and network in the Microsoft ecosystem.
IT Nation Connect
Running between the 10th and 12th of November in Orlando Florida for a hybrid real-world and virtual event, IT Nation promises an exploration into the new era of work. The MSP business-focused event will provide insights from thought leaders and experts onto how you can enhance hybrid work for your end-users, with help from tools like Microsoft Teams.
IT Nation Connect covers topics like how to streamline workflow, what MSPs need to do to be more effective in a competitive world, and how you can differentiate your service and gain more customers. The IT Nation Connect event in North America should help business leaders to reach the next level of operational maturity in a changing landscape.
Business owners will learn where they can take their business next based on insights and forecasting from experts across the globe. This is a great place to network and learn. Plus, you can attend online if you can’t make the event in person.
