Over the years, ESPC has visited some of the most incredible cities: from the charming streets of Copenhagen and the historic beauty of Dublin to the vibrant culture of Prague, and the dynamic atmosphere of Amsterdam. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, ESPC kept the excitement alive with engaging online events! The European SharePoint Conference (ESPC), now known simply as ESPC, is one of the largest and most prominent events in Europe dedicated to Microsoft technologies, particularly Microsoft 365 and Azure. It began in 2011 in Berlin, Germany, as a platform for discussing SharePoint and related Microsoft technologies. Over the years, ESPC expanded its scope to include other tools in the Microsoft ecosystem, reflecting the industry’s trend towards digital transformation and cloud adoption. ESPC has grown to become the largest independent European event for Microsoft technology users, serving as a crucial knowledge hub and networking space. It continues to play a vital role in educating the tech community on best practices for using SharePoint, Microsoft 365, and Azure to enhance productivity, collaboration, and security in the modern workplace

By working hand-in-hand with local communities, MACONA is striving for sustainable change that will uplift lives and break the cycle of poverty. To aid their impactful mission, we will be collecting clothing donations to support MACONA’s initiatives at ESPC.
