27 TopicsEvent Recap - Experts Live US - New York City
On October 10 2025, Microsoft’s Times Square office hosted Experts Live US in New York City, bringing together IT pros, developers, and community leaders for a full day of insights on Microsoft technologies, AI, and modern workplace strategies. Registered: 178 In attendance: 126 A great start for a brand-new event, first time in the US! Adam Harmetz’s Keynote: The Future of Content Management with AI Adam Harmetz, VP of PM for Collaborative Apps & Platforms at Microsoft, opened the event with a visionary keynote on modernizing SharePoint and driving the next decade of content management innovation through AI and agents. His session highlighted how Copilot and intelligent automation will transform collaboration, making enterprise content smarter and more adaptive to user needs. Adam summarized Microsoft 365 & Copilot's major AI news from the past 60 days - 6 major things you need to know that Microsoft announced and made available in preview or GA. "We are moving faster than ever in the AI build out, partnering with frontier firms to show what's possible as we help orgs of all sizes stay on the forefront of AI. And as I talked about in the keynote, our research shows employees at these frontier firms are significantly more likely to say their orgs are thriving (71% to 31%). I know the pace of change is intimidating - but the payoff is worth it and we are here to help. So try out our latest innovations in Copilot, create an agent or use one of our new ones - and give us feedback. We're listening." – Adam on LinkedIN Panel Discussion: Rising Together—Allyship, Acceleration & Women Who Lead Tech Forward In a time where AI and cybersecurity evolve at breakneck speed, we cannot afford to leave talent behind. This panel explored the critical role of allyship and inclusive leadership in shaping the future of tech. Led by inspiring women in AI and security, the conversation went beyond technical frontiers to examine the structures and support systems that helped them thrive. The data tells the story: women now make up around 28% of the tech workforce, but representation in AI (22%) and cybersecurity (24%) remains far from equal. The stakes are high—studies show diverse teams detect threats 30% faster and build more ethical AI models. This wasn’t just a diversity talk; it was a strategy session. Attendees learned how allies in leadership, policy, and peer networks are accelerating change, and walked away with actionable steps to amplify underrepresented voices and redesign hiring and mentoring structures for the future we want to build. Celebrating three years of CommunityDays.org This year also marked the three-year anniversary of CommunityDays.org, a global platform born from the SharePoint Saturday movement. CommunityDays.org empowers volunteer organizers to host free technical training events worldwide, spanning Microsoft 365, Power Platform, Azure, and more. Its growth reflects the enduring spirit of community-driven learning and collaboration in the Microsoft ecosystem. We posted a longer for article on the Microsoft Tech Community to celebrate.

Today is Community Manager Appreciation Day, and I want to take a moment to shine a bright, well‑deserved spotlight on the people who ensure our communities feel supported, informed, inspired, and connected: our Community Managers. In the Microsoft ecosystem, community managers do far more than answer questions or keep conversations flowing. They are the bridge between customers and product teams. They elevate voices. They create belonging. They help people feel seen. And they make sure that every meetup, every online exchange, every post, every question; adds value, builds trust, and strengthens the fabric of our global community. Community Managers are the ones who: Champion our users and amplify their successes Foster safe, inclusive spaces where everyone can learn and contribute Translate feedback into action, advocacy, and product impact Support speakers, MVPs, new creators, and first‑time contributors Celebrate the wins, guide through challenges, and keep momentum alive Bring humanity, empathy, and heart to everything we build Their work is often behind the scenes, yet absolutely essential to the health and growth of our technical communities, user groups, community events, and product ecosystems. Why It Matters Communities don’t just “happen.” They are nurtured. They are cultivated. They are cared for. When people feel welcome, supported, and empowered, innovation accelerates. Community Managers make that possible. So, this week, let’s celebrate them loudly. Give Your Community Manager a Shoutout Shout out your - Community Manager. The ones who run your programs, initiatives and experiences! Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs), Regional Leads, user group leads, forum moderators, Discord admins, event organizers, event producers or anyone who helps keep your community experience strong, if they have made a difference for you, let them know. Drop a shoutout in the comments. Tag them. Tell us what they’ve done that mattered. These acknowledgments mean more than you know. To every Community Manager across the Microsoft ecosystem and beyond: Thank you. Thank you for the care, the passion, the hours, the creativity, the resilience, and the heart you bring to this work every single day. You are the reason communities thrive. You create belonging and empathy and opportunities! You are AWESOME! Happy Community Manager Appreciation Day! 💙98Views0likes0CommentsLIVE from ESPC 2025 - Microsoft 365 & AI Conference | Mondays at Microsoft (Episode 63)

At ESPC25 in Dublin, Microsoft MVPs will be easy to spot. They will lead tutorials, power “Ask the Experts,” mentor emerging voices, and support hands-on demos across the Innovation Hub. The Most Valuable Professionals (MVP) program recognizes exceptional community leaders for their technical expertise, leadership, public speaking and writing, online influence, and a strong focus on solving real world problems. MVPs also receive early access to Microsoft products and direct communication channels with our product teams, which helps them bring timely, practical guidance back to the community. Why MVPs matter to our community MVPs are a catalyst for learning and connection. They grow technical communities by organizing meetups, welcoming new participants, and championing diversity and inclusion. They amplify expertise through talks, demos, posts, and guides that turn complex topics into repeatable paths to success. They also share product insight from the field, turning customer feedback into opportunities for improvement by telling engineering what works and what needs attention. The outcome is better products, faster adoption, and stronger communities. How to become an MVP You do not apply for the MVP Award directly. You are nominated by a current MVP or by a full time Microsoft employee. If you are active in the community, someone may notice your contributions. You can also be proactive: connect with MVPs in your domain, ask for mentorship and feedback on your portfolio, and participate in MVPled events to contribute and learn. After nomination, you will submit your community work for review. The MVP program team and the relevant product groups evaluate your impact, consistency, and alignment with the program’s values. Learn more: What is a Microsoft MVP? MVP presence at ESPC25 We’re excited to welcome 88 MVPs onsite at ESPC25. You will find MVPs throughout the event experience.
