Hi there, I work for a partner and I'm seeking information about how to get notification of the Azure Community Calls. I note that these previously seem to have been posted publicly on the web, but I haven't seen any links to sign up to these at any point since June. Can someone help? Thanks, Chris

2FA Requirement Preventing Me Getting Support
Any idea how I can get support to contact me? I'm a member of th eMicrosoft Partner Program and earlier this year I contacted them asking them to not turn on 2FA on my account; we manage our security ourselves etc. Now, it seems I cannot login to the portal without setting up Authenticator. I can't contact them because the only way to contact them is by logging in. Any ideas? I've contacted them using the information on this page https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/topic/global-customer-service-phone-numbers-c0389ade-5640-e588-8b0e-28de8afeb3f2 but it's some useless AI menu that doesn't allow me to speak to a human. I've tried to re-open my previous ticket and they are ignoring me.

Looking for meetups for Brian Levine from Finchloom while attending Ignite in Chicago NOV 2024
Hello, Americas partners! We are sending our Senior Partner Brian Levine to Ignite this year in Chicago in November 2024 to represent Finchloom - a 100% Microsoft Only partner based in Los Angeles, CA. We are looking for ideas to partner with another firm to grow our business. It has to be complimentary so we can help each other. We do Azure Infrastructure, Modern Work (Including), and Security. And our focus is on Design/Deploy, Manage/Support, and Train/Adopt with commercial customers in the USA sized 50-5000. We are DIRECT CSP. Some of the things we are thinking about: * MORE CSP - we are Direct CSP and Experts and we can handle more! are you just a sales team and you need a provisioning partner? we have an affiliate program and we do the billing and support and the heavy lifting. you just sell it. * VMWare to Azure - Do you have a lot of customers who have VMWare and are looking for a way to move it to Azure so they don't have to buy more hardware? * SECURITY - partnering with a company who has a lot of Crowdstrike (or other EDR) customers that need help changing to Defender XDR and Sentinel SIEM * COPILOT ADOPTION - looking for a company who needs help getting users to adopt Copilot company-wide with proven adoption strategies using science and human psychology that want to use M365 Copilot to improve department process and knowledge and upskill employees (employee transformation) If you have any of those needs, let's get a meeting setup with Brian Levine while you are at Ignite so you can explore the possibilities! Thanks! jim

Oh well ... taking a risk is investing in excitement😃 The feature topic for this meeting will be "Update on Azure Virtual Desktop" to be presented by Lourens Van Dyk, Partner Solutions Architect for Azure Core Infrastructure. As usually we'll also look at recent updates to the Commerce and Operations; general business and technology announcements; forthcoming events; and skilling. Please find attached to this post the slides for the meeting and if you are not already registered it's not too late. Just click here. I hope to see you online tomorrow. Regards, Phil
