Microsoft is positioning the event around a clear theme: helping attendees understand how apps, agents, workflows, automation, and trusted data can work together as complete business solutions.

Why this matters for IT administrators

For IT professionals and platform owners, the biggest value is the focus on governance and scale. The agenda emphasizes not just building AI-powered solutions, but also securing, managing, and operationalizing them across the enterprise.

  • Power Platform governance frameworks
  • Copilot and agent rollout planning
  • Enterprise automation strategy
  • Secure Dataverse and data integration architectures
  • Adoption and change management for low-code and AI tools

The conference also creates an opportunity to hear directly from Microsoft product teams about upcoming capabilities and implementation patterns that may influence 2027 roadmaps.

Action items and next steps

If your organization is investing in Power Platform or Copilot-based solutions, now is the time to evaluate whether PPCC 2026 fits your training and planning goals.

Recommended next steps:

  1. Review the conference agenda and workshop options.
  2. Identify team members focused on AI, automation, governance, or architecture.
  3. Register before August 18, 2026 to secure standard pricing.
  4. Consider group discounts if sending multiple attendees.
