Why a six-year speaking run matters
Microsoft does not approve Microsoft-hosted SharePoint Conference (SPC) speaker slots casually. SPC speaker selection is reviewed against Microsoft's field architects, MVP community, customer-reference programs, and partner-program metadata. Selection as a featured speaker at four consecutive SPC events (2009, 2011, 2012, 2014) — combined with parallel speaking slots at Microsoft TechEd, AFCEA, and the largest practitioner conferences (SPTechCon Boston, SPTechCon San Francisco × 2, SharePoint Saturday NYC, SharePoint Summit Montreal) — is a tight authority signal.
The same authority continued through Microsoft 365, Microsoft Teams (CRN's 2020 “Zoom Boom!” coverage of EPC Group's 300-customer Teams rollout in the first 90 days of COVID), Microsoft Fabric, Microsoft Copilot, and now Microsoft 365 E7 + Agent 365. The platforms change. The practitioner-authority signal persists.
