Microsoft Inspire is where partners and Microsoft meet to connect, learn and collaborate to accelerate the digital transformation and success of our customers. At Microsoft Inspire we will: • Inspire with a sales kickoff for the fiscal year to accelerate growth and opportunities for our Microsoft Partner Community • Create opportunities that enable meaningful connections between partners and Microsoft employees • Optimize experiences that nurture connection and belonging of the P2P and P2M communities • Prepare partners to scale customers through digital transformation With past attendance exceeding 16,000 people from around the globe, it is an incredible opportunity to strengthen partnerships with Microsoft and other Partners while finding new opportunities to build and grow. Once again, Microsoft Inspire + Microsoft Ready will be co-located in Las Vegas, Nevada from July 14-28, 2019. Together, Microsoft partners and employees have the opportunity to connect, learn, and collaborate on solutions that will accelerate the digital transformation and success of our customers. What’s new for 2019 You spoke, we listened!

  • Microsoft Inspire 2020: Day One Justin Gilbert
    Microsoft Inspire 2020: Day One Justin Gilbert Over the next few days we’ll unpack all the best bits of Microsoft Inspire and end it all with a virtual happy hour on Friday afternoon. If you can’t be at the event hopefully you can join us and our experts as they cover lessons learned on Friday at 4 Central/5 Eastern. Whether you missed Inspire or just missed a particular session stop by and see what you missed. As someone who hasn’t missed a Microsoft Inspire event in years its odd to be sitting at home watching Gavriella Schuster kicking off Inspire in shorts and flip flops instead of seeing her on stage in person. However, Microsoft isn’t letting a virtual only experience slow them down. Born out of necessity this year’s virtual Inspire experience is highlighting the power of partnership and technology with a focus on being together, when we can’t be together. We’ve all been to scores of webinars over the past few months so it’s interesting to see how Microsoft is using this new medium to engage with the partner community in a new and invigorating way. With live Q & A throughout as well as on demand content this isn’t the same type of webinar we’ve all become accustomed to but instead it’s deeply interactive and immersive. A few examples of their commitment to keeping education vibe alive are: Ask the Expert Networking Activities Educational sessions that extend beyond the event But enough with the preamble, let’s get to the event! Kick Off Gavriella Schuster, CVP One Commercial Partner, summed up what our partner community has faced in the first part of this year and what we’ve accomplished together, “Seeing businesses impacted due to the pandemic is extremely sad but certainty comes from one single truth: human connection, technology, innovation and partners.

  • Microsoft Inspire 2021 Satya Nadella
    Microsoft Inspire 2021 Satya Nadella SATYA NADELLA: Good morning and welcome to Inspire. I’m so excited to be here with you today. I want to start by saying a big thank you. You are the core to who we are and what we do as a company. When it comes to our partners, we believe in two truths. First, we are only successful if you are successful. That means creating new opportunity for you across every sector and every country. And second, we collectively are successful when the world around us is successful. That means every community and country you are helping small businesses become more productive, multinationals more competitive, nonprofits more impactful, governments more efficient, improving health care and educational outcomes, creating new employment opportunities and much, much more. That’s what makes our ecosystem so unique. Over the course of this pandemic, you’ve done the hard work to help the world use digital technology get through one of the most challenging moments in modern history. The past year, while heartbreaking in many ways, was a catalyst and the beginning of an era of rapid change. We are going through the greatest structural transformation in our economy in a generation. And while we aren’t going to be able to predict every tailwind or challenge ahead, we know that digital technology will be key to resilience and transformation through whatever may come our way. There is no going back to digital adoption levels of two years ago, there’s only going forward, and this will require a step function change in the level of tech intensity in the years ahead.
