What this is

Community Summit North America is where the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform community compares notes — the honest kind, from people running these systems every day.

Hummingbird is showing up with three speakers and six sessions across the week, covering CE strategy, Copilot-first design, Customer Insights - Journeys, and the path from functional consultant to AI practitioner in the Microsoft ecosystem.

Come to a session, then grab us afterwards. We would rather talk through your actual roadmap than hand you a brochure.

Why come

Six Hummingbird sessions across CE strategy, Copilot-first design and Customer Insights - Journeys
A first-timer meeting on Sunday if Summit is new to you
Straight answers on what AI in Dynamics 365 actually looks like in production
Time with the people who would do the work, not a sales team
