One day. The whole community. In one room.

For one day, the whole community comes offline: real-world takes on the Microsoft EMS stack from the people who actually run it, what works and what doesn't. It's not-for-profit, community-run and open to everyone, so you don't need to be on the Discord to join. Come for the sessions, leave with new contacts, straight answers and a few good stories from the field.

Powered by Microsoft

Microsoft kindly hosts the community at their office near Copenhagen.

In the room:

A full day of sessions
Community-led talks and deep dives across Intune, Entra ID and Microsoft Defender XDR, with real-world takeaways you can put to use the next morning.
Open to everyone
You don't need to be on the Discord to join. Anyone working with or curious about the Microsoft EMS stack is welcome.
Independent & vendor-neutral
Not-for-profit, community-run and sponsor-free. No booths, no badge scans, no 'quick word from our partners', just honest, real-world takes on what works and what doesn't.
Optional evening
Keep the conversation going with an optional evening of pétanque and a two-course dinner.
