Three ways to make the most of your Microsoft Inspire experience
Author: Julie Golding
At Microsoft Inspire, we shared details around big changes to Microsoft 365, introduced new playbooks and e-books, and shared new ways we’re helping you attract and reach more customers. Here are a few ways you can take advantage of these announcements to continue strengthening your partnership with Microsoft and grow your business:
1. Follow up on connections
One of the simplest things to do after Microsoft Inspire is follow up on the conversations and ideas you shared with new connections. Make sure to connect on LinkedIn, and join the Microsoft Inspire conversation on the Microsoft Partner Community to keep networking all year long. There’s no need to wait till next July!
2. Take advantage of new partner resources
During the Corenotes at Microsoft Inspire, you heard about the great new programs and initiatives first announced July 12 that will help us take advantage of the USD4.5 trillion market opportunity together.
“We have already positioned several products that we saw at Inspire with our clients and have used some of the video content from Inspire to position Microsoft as a trusted partner in security and the modern workplace.”

3. Get ready for next year’s Microsoft Inspire
The earlier you plan your trip to Microsoft Inspire, the easier it is to decide who you’ll bring, budget for the trip, and set your goals for attending the event. There’s a lot to do at Microsoft Inspire, so knowing what you’d like to accomplish is key.
“[Preparation] starts straight after the event with a ‘lessons learned,’ what didn’t work for me and what did. That way I don’t make the same mistakes twice!”
