Help Shape the Future of Microsoft 365: Join Research Sessions at Microsoft 365 Community Conference
One of the most rewarding aspects of the Microsoft 365 Community Conference isn’t just about attending sessions; it’s about having a say in what gets developed next.
The Research sessions at the Microsoft 365 Community Conference provide attendees with a unique opportunity to work directly with the Microsoft teams responsible for the products millions rely on every day. These sessions offer a platform for customers, practitioners, and IT experts to share their real-world experiences and influence the future of Microsoft 365.
Unlike typical lectures or breakout sessions, Research sessions are interactive discussions in small groups, meant to ensure your voice is heard in the product design process.
During a typical session, you can look forward to:
- Engaging directly with Microsoft researchers (and sometimes partner teams)
- Exploring scenarios based on real customer workflows
- Reviewing early concepts or prototypes and providing input on their practicality in your context
- Giving honest feedback to help shape and enhance future experiences
The Research sessions cover some of the most popular and rapidly changing Microsoft 365 tools, including:
- SharePoint
- OneDrive
- Microsoft Teams
- Microsoft Planner
- Microsoft Lists
- Viva Engage
Whether you manage these tools on a large scale, support their adoption, or develop solutions around them, your insights help teams understand what’s working well today and what needs improvement.
Participation in Research sessions is by invitation only to keep the groups intimate and ensure everyone has a chance to share their thoughts.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Registered conference attendees will receive an email to register for the Research sessions.
- The invitation includes brief descriptions of each session along with a short signup form to indicate your topic preferences.
- Participants must complete a consent form and a non-disclosure agreement. Joining the Research sessions is optional and won’t affect your conference attendance if you opt out.
- Spaces are limited and filled on a first-come, first-served basis, so it’s a good idea to register early.
The Microsoft 365 Community Conference is all about learning, networking, and community—and the Research sessions enhance that experience even further. This is your chance to go beyond passive listening and actively shape the development of Microsoft 365.
If you’ve ever wanted to have a say in the tools you use daily, the Research sessions offer one of the most impactful ways to do so. Watch out for the invitation, pick a session that matches your interests, and bring your real-world expertise to the table.
