Go from AI hype to AI how

AI is everywhere. Real results aren’t.

At Microsoft Ignite 2025, you can learn how to go from proof-of-concept to real-world AI results — with the right foundations, agents, and safeguards.

With Insight as a Vanguard sponsor for Microsoft® Ignite 2025, hosted Nov. 17–21, our experts will provide you with face-to-face AI expertise. Visit our booth #927 for a hands-on agentic AI demo and to catch the latest Insight ON podcast thought leadership.

Book your strategy sprint during and after Ignite with our specialists — so you can innovate and scale with AI. We will also have a dedicated meeting room at Ignite, so if you have AI questions, we can answer them on-site.
