Microsoft Build — 2026

AI Machine Learning Cloud Computing Software Development DevOps
Microsoft Build is Microsoft’s annual developer conference, focused on Azure AI services and the AI Foundry platform, GitHub Copilot and agentic development tools, .NET and C#, and developer infrastructure across the Microsoft 365 platform. Sessions mix deep technical architecture talks with hands-on labs and direct access to product teams, and recent editions have moved to a deliberately smaller in-person format. It suits developers and architects building on Microsoft platforms; there is no peer-reviewed programme and no CORE rank.
