We grabbed time with three Microsoft tech event experts: Sharon Weaver (Founder & CEO | Smarter Consulting), Sean Bugler (Principal Innovation Architect | Metropolitan Transportation Commission), and Derek Cash-Peterson (Principal Architect | Sympraxis Consulting LLC) - to get their insights about in-person events. The goal is to give you, future attendee, tips, tricks and best practices to optimize your in-person event experience. We also got a sense of what each person plans to present, and each shared a fun story from their past in-person event memory box. Lots of laughs. Lots to get you prepped before boarding your flight to Orlando, FL.

We talk with Microsoft partner Circle T, along with their customer, Millennium Services Group. You'll hear about Millennium’s self-maintaining intranet strategy, including integration into Microsoft Teams – establishing an “enterprise knowledge platform.” We also learn about their policy center that helps “reduce time to content.” Millennium is interested in SharePoint Syntex to improve insider risk management and communication compliance. The goal to have an intranet that serves both employee self-service needs and programmatic compliance for IT is one born from human-centric design that safeguards operations at scale.
