The Floor Has Risen (hosted by Microsoft)

Panel Discussion and Workshop led by Microsoft Everyone has the same AI tools now. So what actually sets you apart? Join us for an afternoon built around that question. We're bringing together three women leading AI at Microsoft for a candid panel on standing out, building judgment, and following the money in an AI-powered world. Then we're rolling up our sleeves for a hands-on Copilot workshop; no experience needed, just bring your paid M365 license, laptop, and your questions. This isn't a lecture. It's a room full of women at every stage of their career, figuring out what comes next together. Come for the insight, stay for the skills, leave with something in your hands. Spots are limited, so grab yours early.--------- Build Your First Agent with M365 Copilot See how Microsoft employees are using M365 Copilot to transform everyday work, then get hands-on and build an agent of your own. No coding background or deep technical knowledge is required. You’ll leave with practical inspiration and a guided introduction to agent creation. Before attending: please confirm you have an M365 Copilot license and can create a new agent in the Copilot app. We are genuinely doing everything we can to make sure everyone has access in time. If it doesn't work out, don't worry, we'll simply pair you with someone who does have a license so you can still fully take part. --------- Launch of career booklet: AI Ladies Lounge - She Builds with AI On the day we'll be closing things out with the launch of our first digital Lounge booklet (She Builds with AI), something you can get, and actually use. This is a career guide built by and for community members who are navigating careers in AI. This book started as an idea and became real because of the writers who gave their time, expertise, and honesty to it over the past few months. Every chapter carries a piece of someone's lived experience, the questions they wrestled with, the paths they carved, and the advice they wish they'd had earlier. We can't wait to celebrate this milestone with the AI Ladies Lounge community. ---------The AI Ladies Lounge is a global community of women and non-binary individuals learning, building, and shaping the future of artificial intelligence together.
