A community hub at a data conference serves as a vital central point for building connections, collaboration, and innovation among attendees. The Community Lounge at FabCon Europe in Stockholm was a great example of this. It was a hive of activity across the entire event.

Microsoft’s community staff, MVPs, volunteers and members all came together to provide an entertaining way to network and ensure the right people are signed up to the right community platforms.

There were Fabric speed competitions, surveys, fun community user tasks and all had fantastic swag prizes, like my little Fabric friend pictured here…

There was a session to bring together the user group leaders from around the world, where we were all given the reassurance and put in contact with the right people to ensure we have what we need. There were also a few MVP sessions, a meet and greet as well as a session highlighting the things you need to do to qualify for the program.

Away from professional and data community events, there was a huge push to pack small care packages ready for delivery to the local community in Stockholm. Over 1200 of these were assembled over the three-day event, each containing a personalised message, a brilliant achievement and no doubt a fantastic help to those in need.

The full name of the conference is Microsoft Fabric Community Conference, the community part was definitely well represented.
