JCC Consultancy update: First day Microsoft Office 365 Summit in Toronto Canada

Hi everyone,

Having visited the SharePoint Conference in Las Vegas last march (go here for my blog on the event), the WPC Washington last July ( go here for blog on that event) and the Office 365 Drumbeat event in Cologne Germany (click here for blog on that event)  in April, this time JCC Consultancy will do Toronto, Canada.

It is 6.00 am in the morning in Toronto and i have been awake since 3.00 am, because of a jetlag. But hey no sweat, you just get up and go to the gym in the Hyatt Regency hotel, which is right in the middle of downtown Soho and near the Rogers stadium and work out.

After the workout i got the chance to pay a visit to the 24/7 store Rabba and bought some delicious Canadian Maple Syrup.

2 hours from now that is why JCC Consultancy is in Toronto and that is to attend the Microsoft Summit Office 365. The summit is taking place in the Allstream centre building.

Tomorrow, October 9th,  JCC Consultancy will attend the Office 365 training. For the agenda of the Training, please go here

Latest update on the Office 365 summit

This morning i had a breakfast meeting with Senior Channel Marketing Manager of Microsoft HQ to introduce JCC Consultancy and to talk about the Microsoft Non Managed SMB partners market in Canada.

I also met up with Olu Abikoye, Business Technology Systems & Project Delivery Analyst, Corporate Systems at Vision Critical.

After the breakfast, the keynote was kicked off by Jason Brommet, Director Partner Strategy Partners Microsoft Canada by telling that Microsoft new strategy to be a productivity and platform organization in a cloud and mobile ready world will impact the way partners are working. He also spoke about how Microsoft is going to help Microsoft partners to better transform their current business model and help them to save costs and realize more revenue and margins.

The most impressive session in my opinion was the one presented by IDC’s Channel and Alliances Research Darren Bibby. His session was called Business Partner Success in the Era of the Third Platform and showing what is really going in the market in Canada if it comes to opportunities and threats. Darren also gave some advice and tricks on how to become a succesful Cloud partner for your customers.

After all, this summit was definetely worth while for Microsoft to visit. Hopefully everyone also enjoyed the summit as I did today. For JCC Consultancy it has been a great day.

Hi all,

Here we are with Day 3 at the WPC in Washington.

The sessions gave me an impression how much attention Microsoft is paying and investing in renewing and reinventing the SMB partner channel in FY15. The following slides will give a first impression that there are huge opportunities for Partner to focus on the SMB customers.

Partners agree with and believe in the clear and differentiated vision Microsoft has outlined for the future, so they are making the investments to bet big on Microsoft. The huge opportunity for partners to address customer needs in the cloud continues to drive innovative solutions and apps based on Microsoft technology.

Today is Pick up day at the SharePoint Conference in Vegas

Goodmorning everyone,

Today it is Sunday March 2nd and it is the day where all attendees can pick up their All Access pass. Enjoy the ambiance in the Venetian Hotel and the Casinos and the many Shopping malls.

I just picked up my Pass and it was already quite busy and warm in the Registration Ball room.  There was quite a line up and for those who are going to register later on today, take into consideration that there might be a long line before you can register.

In my case this morning, there was some problem with finding my badge name after I had scanned the barcode. So they refer me to the Helpdesk where it took them 10 minutes to find my registration back. During those 10 minutes the helpdesk  employees (3 of them were minding my business) asked me 5 times what my name was and they kept my passport and did not want to give it back to me. I think that was quite crazy and it looked like I was passing the airport security gate.

Anyway, after 10 minutes they found my name in the system and printed out my badge. To my surprise, it was stated on my badge that I am a US citizen and from USA in stead of the Netherlands. And I do not even have a green card:-).

How strange huh. And no I did not register myself incorrectly during the registration for this event earlier this year:-).

Let us keep this as a startup system failure and mistake and the rest of the event will be awesome. Tonight there is going to be a Welcome Reception and I look forward to this.

Enjoy the stay everyone!

Tomorrow there is going to live updates on the sessions JCC Consultancy is going to attend. Here is an overview of the sessions JCC Consultancy is attending.

Have a good one.

Sincere regards,

Jean-Claude Chan
