[MUSIC PLAYING] The experts conference isn't just an event. TEC is a rapidly-growing global community of experts, practitioners, executives, and MVPs collaborating on the latest in cybersecurity, AI, Microsoft 365, and Hybrid Active Directory. Today, TEC stands as the practical conference for identity and Microsoft 365 professionals. Over 20,000 IT professionals across 85 plus industries engaged with the 225-plus Microsoft MVPs, who are part of the TEC community.
From its humble North American roots, TEC has crossed the Atlantic, establishing a strong European presence. London, Paris, Munich, Frankfurt, and Barcelona have all hosted their own TEC events, bringing world-class expertise directly to local IT professionals.
But TEC's reach extends far beyond physical gatherings. The introduction of online TEC Talks has allowed TEC to truly go global. These TEC Talks have connected experts with audiences worldwide, breaking down geographical barriers. As cyber threats grow more sophisticated and Microsoft technologies advance, TEC continues to expand, offering a unique blend of in-person and virtual learning experiences, all focused on practical, high-level solutions to your most pressing IT challenges.
The TEC community is proudly hosted and sponsored by experts who have helped move, manage, and secure more than 336 million Hybrid Active Directory users' Quest software. With more international locations on the horizon, TEC is poised to continue its mission, empowering IT professionals worldwide with the knowledge needed to build, manage, and defend Microsoft environments.
