HEY! Why are you here visiting MGCI? Tell us...
Hi Wes,
Thank you for this welcoming post!
I am a Data Analyst based in Rome, Italy. I am very interested in getting involved with local technical events, community days, or user groups near me, especially those focused on Data Analytics, Power BI, and AI.
Could you please guide me on how to find or connect with active Microsoft community events or groups here in Rome?
Thanks!
Hello and welcome!
I'm not personally familiar with the MS tech community in Italy, but we'll see what we can find. We'll see where your nearest Regional Lead is and if they have any input on user groups or events. Looking at Community Days.org, there aren't any events listed but there is a group that had an event a few years ago. It looks like they still have events but aren't listing them in Community Days. I found them here: https://www.beconnectedday.it/en/about They're not in Rome but might have insights or connections you can use to get connected.
Another group you might want to check with: https://www.meetup.com/power-bi-user-group-italy/
It looks like the same folks might be on LinkedIn as well: https://www.linkedin.com/company/power-bi-italy/?originalSubdomain=it
If you don't find anything locally, it might be an opportunity to spin something up yourself or with a group of peers (recommended - going alone is *tough*).
Let's see what we can find.
Wes
