Announcing the Microsoft Copilot Studio Partner Growth Plan!
Microsoft Copilot Studio was just announced this week at Microsoft Ignite and is built upon the foundations of Power Virtual Agents. We have updated the Power Virtual Agents Partner Growth Plan, making the guidance more relevant to Copilot Studio and specific steps Microsoft Partners can take when building capability in the platform by driving customer conversations. Those Partners already on the existing plan will transition over to it during this year. The future is conversational, and Microsoft Partners are key to supporting our customers interest and success when building custom copilots or existing ones. Ensure your teams understand the basics and the application features that are key to your customer's success for both winning opportunities and delivering value. As each tier's requirements are completed, you will unlock benefits that help you gain exposure to customers and further your Microsoft Copilot Studio and Conversational AI skillsets that will be useful across multiple practices within your organization. Learn more about the plan and how to get started by taking a look at the time below. Links for each stage will be posted in the comments. If you believe you have met all requirements, beginning with the Base tier, and would like to nominate your organization for consideration, please complete the following survey at: https://aka.ms/copilotstudio/partnergrowthplan For more information about the announcements at Microsoft Ignite and Microsoft Copilot Studio, be sure to check out the blog here.Grow your Conversational AI skills with the Power Virtual Agents Partner Growth Plan
