Have you registered for the craziest Office 365 conference yet?

You may think we are crazy, but we got the itch back and are doing it again! On October 7th at 9pm UTC we are going to kick off a 24 hour conference packed full of top notch content that's all centred on Office 365, SharePoint (Online and On-Premises) and Azure. There's literally going to be something for everyone packed into this cracker of a conference.  

Collab365 Global Conference in numbers...

  • 120+ sessions presented by speakers from 6 continents (still after a speaker from Antarctica).
  • 9 tracks (2 Office 365, 2 SharePoint, 1 Azure, 2 Business and dedicated to French and Spanish speakers). 
  • 1 mouth-watering keynote from the Office 365 poster boy - Jeremy Thake.
  • 400+ hours of preparation will have gone into this event from the team behind the conference. 
  • 10 supportive sponsors are helping to finance the conference.
  • We are really confident that we will break through 10,000 registered attendees.
  • 1800 pre-registered attendees already.
  • It's going to cost $0 to attend.

The Collab365 Show 

We are always trying to improve on all aspects of the online conferences and this time we're introducing the "Collab365 Show". The show is going to be live hosted by Andy Talbot with lots of help from the co-hosts (Hugh Wood and Mark Stokes). Here's some of the segments that will feature.

  • Expert Panels on Forms and Azure Development, plus others.
  • Live link interviews with SharePoint and Office 365 communities from all around the world.
  • The Office Migration Show, where you will be able to go "on camera" and get expert advice from the hard core developers behind the ever popular SPCAF.
  • Interviews with MS Product Managers such as Sonya Koptyev, Mark Kashman, Jeremy Thake and Daniel Valik. (We also tried to get Satya Nadella, but not got a response so far - anyone got him on their contact list?? ;)!
  • We are also looking to stream some live content via a sattelite studio in the Netherlands. This show will be hosted by Maarten Visser

Registration is Open - so save your place today!

One thing I am really excited to share is that registration is now open! Head on over to here, fill in the form that will only take 

A couple of "pretty pleases" ;)

Finally, before I sign-off I wanted to ask that you take the following points into consideraiton:

If you register - please attend at least 2 sessions ...

When you register (it's really easy), but please remember that we will be spending time, effort (and money) to size the platform appropriately. We have streaming costs to absorb, Azure costs and our awesome partners Fpweb.net have a whole SharePoint Farm to scale up and out. So if you do register - please come!!

We are also going to be giving you a huge incentive to turn up on the day in the form of a registration raffle. The prize pot or the Raffle will grow bigger as we draw closer and the winner will literally take it all! However, if you win you must have attended at least 2 sessions to qualify.

(Sponsors - if you would like to add to the registration raffle pot, please contact us).

Please support the sponsors by allowing them to contact you occasionally  ...

Could we develop, organise and host on the world's largest free Office 365 conference without the help of sponsors? Not a chance, so can I ask that when you do register you also support the conference and allow us to keep it free for all. 

That's all folks and one last thing, the agenda's being tweaked but check out this speakers line up!!
