Microsoft Office SharePoint is making waves all over the world! Everyone from Microsoft to our customers and partners has accumulated a wealth of real-life product and deployment experience that we want to share with you!
Microsoft has designed a free, one-day, three-track “best of” SharePoint Conference 2008 that will showcase composites of the very best sessions on Microsoft’s market-leading SharePoint Products and Technologies. We’ll host a Solutions Partner Pavilion, have presenters from Redmond in several sessions and three prominent MVPs (Most Valuable Professionals) guest speakers.
