The First Rule of the Microsoft MVP Summit 48:42

9M ago48:42

48:42

... is NOT "don't talk about the Microsoft MVP Summit". Quite the opposite, in fact, as you're actively encouraged to post on social media that you're there (#MVPSummit). You just can't share any of the information from the sessions as all the content is under NDA. Emma and Lotte (aka 50% of Candid Contributions) were at the Microsoft Campus in Red…
