Global Azure Virtual 2021 is here Share Written By Global Azure Global Azure is the biggest community event about the Microsoft Azure platform. Tags 2021Global AzureVirtual 2021-01-10 It is time for something BIG, Global, and FUN! On April 15-17 the Global Azure community will go online to share, learn, and have community Azure fun together! Anyone who wants to present - speak! Anyone who wants to learn - immerse! Anyone who wants to be our ally - sponsor and support! Find out below how to get involved! What will happen at #GlobalAzure? Of course everyone wanted physical meetups, but in the realities of a pandemic that is not happening. Instead what will the Global Azure Virtual 2021 event be about? Anything you'd like because this is OUR event! The first thing everyone can do is refer to us to raise awareness! We use the hashtag #GlobalAzure in our social media presence and we refer to the event url https://virtual.globalazure.net! Spread the word! Second thing to do is to sign up for our newsletter! Global Science Lab - compute for good. Live Stream - with guest super stars. Virtual hangouts - preferred beverage and amusement. Call to action - community leaders, sponsors and speakers! Time to spring into action, make plans, and prepare for the best and biggest #GlobalAzure event yet! Community Leaders Setting up local meetups is what drives us and we love doing it! Right now that is not recommended. What you can do as a community leader is enable your local community speakers to present at the Global Azure Virtual! You can still be an activation and enablement agent and you can be part of the greatness of community joy and shared learning. As a community hero you are in a great position to set up technology for live streams, gather the speakers who are part of your community and broadcast from where you are to the world on our #GlobalAzure event! Sponsors Would you like to be seen here on our site, in our emails and communications we send out, and would you like to be exposed to a global community of potential new customers? Please contact us for sponsorship opportunities! Speakers It is your time to shine! We are in the process of sorting out what streaming platform we will use for the 2021 edition, and will soon publish a Call for Speakers so you can submit your talks - you can sign up Buddy System: I have not spoken before, but I have something to share! Future Speaker Experts: If you are a person who feel you could use a push, or a nudge or some guidance to growing your speaker-persona, contact us and we will endeavour to match you with a veteran speaker who is willing to give you some guidance! Veteran Speakers: Are you a seasoned speaker type who has done this for a while and would like to help fresh talent prepare? Contact us and we will match you with a newbie you can help prepare for a presentation during #GlobalAzure! #GlobalAzure Virtual 2021 - Bigger and better than ever We had hoped for an in-person event in 2021 but the coronavirus has had other ideas, and of course we take the health and wellbeing of everyone very seriously. Virtual it is! We look forward to working with you, the community, and our sponsors in making Global Azure Virtual in 2021 the best event we have ever done! This is going to be EPIC!
