SMB Nation Final Recap
What a great weekend! I met a lot of great Microsoft Partners and User Group champions from all around the world at SMB Nation. My only regret is not attending more sessions. There were so many topics to choose from, we had to take a divide and conquer approach to the sessions since we were running the hands on labs in the afternoons.
There was a lot of energy around the Small Business Specialist program and a lot of partners taking the 70–282 exam through the entire weekend. I’d be will to guess that over 25% of the attendees took the exam while they were attending the conference.
Next year, I'm hoping we can get the entire TS2 team to attend the event and contribute more to the overall success of the conference. Harry, thanks again for inviting us this year, we had a lot of fun and got a lot of great feedback from the Partner community that we wouldn't have gained anywhere else.
If you're looking for a real play by play of the sessions, check out Vlad Mazek's posts on his blog from today, September 13th. Vlad has a lot of great photos and detailed descriptions of each of the sessions he attended.
Here’s a photo of me and Vlad on Saturday before we went to dinner at Pier 66.
Now its back to working on the Exam Prep for the 70–282 and the 70–134 exams for the SBSC program. Cya on the webcasts…
