The MVP Virtual Conference

There is a great conference coming up that is open to everyone with a keyboard and a monitor. This is a free event that Microsoft and my fellow MVPs are putting on, May 14th & 15th.  Friends, presenters and fellow Microsoft MVPs from the Americas’ region will be live-streaming for two days to share their knowledge and real-world expertise during a free event, the MVP Virtual Conference.

The MVP Virtual Conference will showcase 95 sessions of content for IT Pros, Developers and Consumer experts designed to help you navigate life in a mobile-first, cloud-first world. Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President of Developer Platform, Steve Guggenheimer, will be on hand to deliver the opening Key Note Address.

Hey…if you want to play along during the conference, be sure to get yourself a copy of Visual Studio or an IDE of your choice, and sign up for your free Azure trial.

I was part of the group that had the privilege of picking the sessions. I have to be honest, it wasn’t easy…there were about a billion great topics from the MVPs put forth, and right from the start it was hard to omit any single entry.

The are going to be 5 tracks in the conference, so there is something for everyone who works in IT, regardless of platform:

• IT Pro English
• Dev English
• Consumer English
• Portuguese mixed sessions
• Spanish mixed sessions

There are some excellent, industry-leading names on the list. Learn from the best and brightest MVPs in the tech world today and develop some great skills.
