Intro
Microsoft has once again brought together its partners of reference in Spain to celebrate the Microsoft AI Tour, a circuit of 80 events that will be held around the world. Yesterday it was the turn of Madrid, in what was a meeting that had innovation and generative AI at its core, and that had numerous specialists from the company, as well as 25 partners, present in the Connection Hub, where Plain Concepts was also present. Here are all the details!
This global event has brought together developers, IT professionals, and technical communities to deepen and train in generative AI to the network with responsible and safe practices, as well as to discover first-hand the company’s most recent innovations. ‘In a context in which the emergence of AI has transformed the working environment in Spain, where 68% of workers already incorporate it into their daily routine and advanced users save more than 30 minutes a day in their working day, the Microsoft AI Tour is presented as a meeting to provide technology professionals and developers with best practices to integrate AI into their daily operations and drive innovation in their organizations in a responsible, safe and sustainable way.’ The event featured specific tracks for technicians and developers, where, through sessions and demos, the latest news on GenAI, application development, cloud services, and the entire Copilot stack and its latest updates were shared. With all this, Azure AI Studio, Copilot Studio, and the protection of AI applications in Azure were the protagonists.
Microsoft announced the introduction of new Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents, as well as new tools for creating autonomous agents, based on its Copilot platform, which will seek to address new use cases in sales, finance, and supply chain, with the potential to generate more productivity and new savings. The company said it will introduce the ability to create autonomous agents with Copilot Studio, which will be in public preview next month. Additionally, Microsoft will introduce 10 new autonomous agents in Dynamics 365 to increase capacity for sales, service, finance, and supply chain teams. It also added that agents created from Copilot Studio will be able to use the context of each company’s work data stored in Microsoft 365 Graph, systems of record, Dataverse, and Fabric. Agents can support multiple areas, from the IT help desk to employee onboarding, and act as personal concierge for sales and service. The sessions also embraced the importance of Microsoft Fabric, with news and real-world use cases, tips for taking your eCommerce app to the next level, GitHub Copilot, LLMOps with a focus on code, discovering the potential of native cloud infrastructure, etc.
The plenary session was led by María Vázquez, Director of Enterprise Solutions at Microsoft Spain, who highlighted the importance of technological innovation in business: “At Microsoft, we are committed to accelerating the adoption of AI and generative AI in companies and public administrations in Spain and to serving as a catalyst for innovation in our country. To do this, it is essential to have our partner ecosystem, which plays a critical role in helping organizations reinvent their processes and enrich the customer experience, always with a focus on privacy, security, and sustainability. Proof of this is the creation of RAIIC (Responsible AI Innovation Center), an initiative that counts on the collaboration of our strategic partners”.
In addition, the meeting was also attended by Ester de Nicolás, Director of Strategic Missions and Technologies in AI at Microsoft Corporation, one of the company’s leading figures in innovation, who addressed the transformative impact of AI in science and quantum computing: ‘Every day, scientists around the world search for new molecules to solve some of the most important challenges we face, from more sustainable products to new treatments for diseases. However, this search is infinitely complex. Even a billion years of all the computing power available in the world would not be enough to explore and evaluate all possible combinations of molecules and materials for a given scientific problem. That’s why we need a new technology paradigm that accelerates scientific discovery, combining generative AI with hybrid classical-quantum supercomputing. At Microsoft, we are building that platform so that scientists worldwide can find solutions to the most challenging problems.
Plain Concepts has actively participated in the event as a Premium Sponsor and has been present with a booth where the team has talked with attendees and presented the solutions we are working on.
