Viva Communications and Communities Guide to M365 Community Conference!
Join Microsoft and community experts in-person, in one place, at the Microsoft 365 Community Conference in Orlando, FL, April 30 – May 2, 2024. The event is dedicated to Microsoft Copilot and AI, Viva, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Power Platform, and related Microsoft 365 apps and services, plus a full Transformation track for communicators, HR, and business stakeholders in workplace experience.
The role of communicators has changed rapidly over the last few years. Learn how Viva and AI is here to modernize comms and deliver a next generation employee experience through a mix of technology, strategy, and change management.
You’ll hear the latest product updates and guidance from over 175 Microsoft product makers — filled with real-world solutions across keynotes, sessions, and pre/post event deep-dive workshops to build your expertise – presented alongside Microsoft MVPs and community experts. We hope you join in to learn, share, and engage – including evening gatherings, the attendee party (hosted at Universal Islands of Adventure), and Microsoft will have a dedicated, fully-staffed product booth and community space within the Expo Hall alongside all the wonderful event sponsors.
