For the fourth year in a row, I can call myself a [Microsoft Ignite speaker](https://ignite.microsoft.com/?ref=techielass.com)!

It's such an honour to speak at Microsoft's biggest conference and event for IT Pros. This year the event is doing something different. There will be an in-person and virtual event running from Seattle, Microsoft's base. And then several other countries will be holding smaller in-person events at the same time. 

Hopefully this makes it much more accessible for everyone, being able to see things either virtually or in-person local to them. 

I am supporting four different events in at the UK event in Manchester. 

During the event in Manchester there will be a live stream and I will be doing an interview there on the Thursday around 2:15pm UK time. 

Also, on the Thursday I will be taking part in an expert meetup session. "[Expert Meet-up: Build your modern, resilient and agile business on Microsoft Azure](https://ignite.microsoft.com/en-US/sessions/df0733a5-2641-48d0-b695-cc6d430ec2ec?source=sessions)". This is an opportunity for us to chat and share knowledge and ask questions. There are about 5 or 6 different people who will be there to answer your questions so be sure to come and say hello. I'll have some stickers to give away!

On the Friday I have two speaking sessions. The first session is "Accelerating Innovation & empowering teams: From code to cloud in minutes", it is a speaking/panel discussion session with [Carole Logan](https://twitter.com/crgrieve?ref=techielass.com). 

The second session is another speaking/panel discussion session with [Lisa Clark](https://www.twitter.com/lisaattheedge?ref=techielass.com) entitled ["Azure Stack HCI: The best of the cloud and on-premises"](https://ignite.microsoft.com/en-US/sessions/e145a1c4-6cfe-4f72-9d51-d6c77c06f518?source=sessions). We will have stickers and Scottish shortbread to give away as well!

I am very much looking forward to the event and sharing the stage with so many fantastic women.
