Annual conference
Microsoft Inspire (formerly the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference[1]) was a conference held annually by the Microsoft Corporation for its partner community. It was announced in 2024 that it would be replaced by Microsoft's new virtual event, MCAPS Start for Partners.[2]
At Inspire, partners are taught about Microsoft's roadmap for the upcoming year, network and build connections, share best practices, experience the latest product innovations, and learn new skills and techniques.[3] There are also keynote addresses from Microsoft executives, featured speakers, business-track specific offerings, and hundreds of sessions.
In its current form, it has been held since 2003.[3] Before 2003, it was two different events, Microsoft Fusion and the Microsoft Business Solutions Stampede.[4] In recent years, not including the Virtual Online events, it has been co-located with the Microsoft internal Microsoft Ready conference.[5]
