Microsoft Reactors help developers and startups learn, connect, and build through local community engagement. Reactors are hubs to connect with local peers as well as industry-leading ideas and technology from Microsoft, partners, and the open source community. User groups can work with their local Reactor to host community events and Microsoft also delivers its own content, unique to each location and often in local language.

Global Azure was conceived as an event delivered by the community for the community. In our minds ‘community’ is inclusive of all nations, genders, religions, cultures and race. We strive to help each of us be better through the umbrella of an event which promotes sharing, teaching, and directly using technology for good through our Global Science Lab.

We are saddened that current events facture that community. We condemn any behaviour that attacks or excludes people, from prejudice to war. From our humble position as an event intended to foster goodwill and betterment for all involved, we will continue our efforts in that regard.

We will miss our friends that are not able to place their pins on our map this year. We hope that they are safe, and we will welcome them back to Global Azure in future.

Two great updates regarding #GlobalAzure 2022 today. Read the details below!

We are happy to announce that Global Azure is ready for another round! Global Azure is all about community, all about FUN, and all about instigating active learning and encouraging learners to stay up to date with Azure technology. After starting in 2013 this will be the 9th edition, and we love to see how it grows year after year. The call for speakers is now open and we have some new tools for community organizers.

If you looking for instructions on how to setup your local event on Sessionize to integrate your schedule with the Global Azure agenda available at https://globalazure.net you are in the right place. The objective is to promote through a single point your local community speakers and content, showing what is happening around the world during the #GlobalAzure event. We also want to allow each local organizer to manage its own event and its own premises. Your event, your rules. We asked some communities, we asked the folks at Sessionize, and after some whiteboard sessions, we implemented what somebody called "Sessionize event federation". Sounds funny right?

The original "Global {Community} Bootcamp" event is BACK! No pesky pandemic will stop our thirst for knowledge or the drive and longing to share our skills with each other, and to have fun together! Join us wherever you are in the world to learn about Azure and have fun together with your friends and colleagues, on a GLOBAL SCALE!

We are delighted to announce that Microsoft is once again sponsoring the #GlobalAzure community!

There are many out there in the world who are exited by the idea to speak virtually at Global Azure. At the same time as a beginner speaker or as someone who has never spoken virtually and does not have the technical setup in order, giving a first virtual presentation may seem very daunting and infinitely far off!
