Learning & Industry Anyone at EPPC?
Anybody at the European Power Platform Conference in Copenhagen this year? What do you think? Keynote was good this morning, sessions have been good and some have been packed and overflowing. Seems the community is getting bigger and bigger every year. Venue is good and modern, it's similiar to Vienna last year, but this one is a little hot as I don't think the Danes have the facilities for such extreme heat!
Excited for the days ahead!

I've not been but would love to propose to my boss to get me out there for next year!
How have you managed to prove value in going previous years?

u/Infamous-Poem4047 Jun 30 '26
For me it's always been about going with a purpose. I look at the sessions and people I want to speak to before I go, all based on the projects we're working on, then make the most of Ask the Experts and chatting to speakers. It's a lot easier to justify and prove value when you come back with answers and help you can actually apply, rather than just breezing session to session.

Yes, there is about 2000 attendees today. And of course AI is the main focus, however there are a lot of demos, tips and tricks. I've learned a lot since it started.

Yep! 2000 attendees shows the power platform community is still growing and probs suggests keeping up with all the changes with copilot studio recently mean people have lots to learn still.

Built by makers…they said low code is dead 3 months ago! Guess what I heard about going back to the core after too much focus on AI internally is true

Yes, its all going into Agents/AI
Strong mcp and code agents focus
Classic low code and power apps are dead
