It’s true. You CAN optimize your in-person event experience by listening to ONE podcast episode. And dear Intrazone’r, this is the one – loads of lessons rolled up into 38 info-packed minutes!
We grabbed time with three Microsoft tech event experts: Sharon Weaver (Founder & CEO | Smarter Consulting), Sean Bugler (Principal Innovation Architect | Metropolitan Transportation Commission), and Derek Cash-Peterson (Principal Architect | Sympraxis Consulting LLC) - to get their insights about in-person events - specifically focused on the upcoming Microsoft 365 Community Conference (Orlando, FL | April 30 - May 2, 2024).
The goal is to give you, Future Attendee, tips, tricks, and best practices to optimize your in-person event experience. We also got a sense of what each person plans to present + each shared a fun story from their past in-person event memory box. And we derived how Copilot "should be spelled" in their "expert" opinions :).
Lots of laughs. All to get you pumped and prepped before boarding your flight to Orlando, FL. To learn more about The Microsoft 365 Community Conference, visit our event guide.
