The Microsoft 365 Community Conference is back in Orlando, April 21–23, 2026, and it’s once again the place to learn, connect, and go deep on what’s next for Microsoft 365.
Earlier this month, we celebrated SharePoint’s 25th birthday, a milestone made possible by an incredible global community and a platform that continues to evolve for the era of AI and intelligent work. The Microsoft 365 Community Conference is an opportunity to build on that momentum, learn what’s new in SharePoint, go deeper on the latest innovations, and connect with the community helping shape its future.
For anyone building, managing, or scaling content and experiences across Microsoft 365, SharePoint is at the center of the conversation this year. From preparing your content for Copilot to strengthening governance and building intelligent, extensible solutions, the conference brings together the community and the product makers shaping the future of work.
The evolution of SharePoint
As organizations around the world begin to streamline productivity, formerly simple, one-use apps are growing right alongside them, including your intranet. While intranets have existed for years as a digital front door for employees; they’re becoming part of the AI revolutions as well.
In fact, with the debut of agentic AI that can reason, orchestrate, and act alongside your employees, your intranet has become a staging ground for these hybrid teams to take collaboration and productivity to the next level. Suddenly, a simple digital front door is no longer enough to stay competitive.
That’s why for this year’s Microsoft 365 Community Conference, we’re focusing on the evolution of Microsoft SharePoint, along with the real-world impact communities developed with SharePoint have on modern workspaces. Join us on April 21 through 23 in Orlando, Florida, and be a part of sessions, workshops, and connection opportunities led by Microsoft product makers and community MVPs, all working together to help you evolve your intranet.
Register now to take charge of your productivity. Read on for more information about select sessions, and head to the Microsoft 365 Community Conference website for a full session catalog.
Create agents that truly boost productivity
Everyone wants an AI assistant, but many agents fail due to messy content, weak information architecture, and no clear actions to take. How can someone cut through the hype and learn how to design agents that truly help people get work done?
Get an in-depth walk through organizing and tagging content in SharePoint for high‑quality retrieval, shaping simple task flows that reflect real work, and designing agents with SharePoint, Microsoft 365 Copilot, and Copilot Studio. Expect live demos for common scenarios ranging from project management to customer service, as well as the AI guardrails every organization need and the rollout patterns that stick.
Prepare your content for the AI era
Strong Copilot and agent experiences depend on well-structured, well managed content. We’ll explore how organizations can plan, create, organize, and govern SharePoint content for the AI era using its latest AI capabilities.
These sessions explain how AI in SharePoint makes it easier to go from idea to working content by describing what you need in natural language. SharePoint handles the structure, metadata, and building, reducing manual effort and improving the quality, accuracy, and grounding of Copilot and agent responses. Designed for anyone responsible for information architecture, content strategy, Copilot readiness, or building an AI powered work roadmap.
Get started here: Meet AI in SharePoint with Cory Newton‑Smith and Julie Seto.
Take charge of collaborative chaos with Lists and Loop
How can you tame the constant flow of data and conversation? That’s where we come in. Join us as we show how to utilize Microsoft Loop and Microsoft Lists to track progress, manage details, and keep teams on the same page. With real-world scenarios, interactive demos, and practical strategies, we’ll guide the audience through solutions and demonstrate proven ways to turn scattered information into structured, actionable outcomes.

Design accessible and inclusive digital workplaces
Accessibility isn’t just a compliance checkbox. It’s a strategic advantage for creating a truly inclusive digital workplace. That’s why we’re offering a hands-on session designed to teach attendees how to build experiences in SharePoint that work for everyone.
We’ll dive into practical techniques for creating content, workflows, and intranets that support diverse needs using built-in accessibility features, from screen reader compatibility to reducing cognitive load. Our audience will leave with actionable tips, real-world examples, and a clear roadmap for meeting industry standards while fostering a culture of inclusion.
If you’re looking to build a digital workplace that’s accessible, future-ready, and AI-enhanced, this session is your starting point. Get started here: Accessibility Matters: Designing Inclusive Digital Workplaces with Richard Plantt.
