Summer vacation's over; schools have opened and it's time we scale up (and out) our community activities. Join us for Azure Saturdays Skåne Kickoff as we launch into a new season of community-driven tech exploration! This gathering, featuring an all-female lineup of speakers, is dedicated to showcasing the latest innovations and best practices in the Azure platform. From Azure Virtual Desktop to GitHub Copilot, Microsoft Fabric, and Azure OpenAI, each session is designed to inspire and empower you to scale up your skills and solutions. Let’s come together to learn, network, and as always have fun!

Seminars:

Azure Virtual Desktop – Stefana Ilie
Azure Virtual Desktop is for organizations who are looking for a cost-effective cloud VDI solution. If the current VDI solution is hosted in-house, this can be a very powerful way to meet the organization's new hybrid work strategies.

Supercharge your coding game with GitHub Copilot – Simona Toader
Are you ready to take your coding skills to the next level? Join us for a fun and interactive session where we'll dive into the world of GitHub Copilot! We'll explore how GitHub Copilot can be your ultimate coding sidekick, helping you write code faster and smarter.
