My sessions on upcoming conferences

After delivering very successful four CloudOS events in Sarajevo and Belgrade, with great audience, I’m heavily engaged in preparing sessions for spring conference season in EE region. This year, 4 conferences are happening in very short time frame (10 days), all of them are really great and I highly recommend that you visit at least some, if not all, of them.

tarabica It all starts with first Serbian Community-driven conference called Tarabica. It will happen on April 5th in Belgrade, it is fully organized by Serbian community guys and MVPs, and I’m sure that it will be a great event. It happens on Saturday, so you don’t have to ask your boss for permissions to attend :). On this conference, I will deliver a session about managing smart cards with ForeFront Identity Manager 2010 R2. You can see more about this session (and also register for a conference) here.

WD Right after Tarabica conference, one of the largest Microsoft official conference in region starts – Windays14. This year, again in Umag, beautiful place on Croatian coast. Last year it was very nice there – great place, excellent speakers a lot of fun, and I’m sure it will be same or better this year. On this conference, I’ll deliver a session about BYOD technologies in Windows Server 2012 R2 (session details are here) and also a session about how to efficiently build and manage internal PKI (session details are here).

NTK In the same week as Windays (but starting from Wednesday) Slovenian Microsoft NTK conference will happen. This is the conference with longest history in this region (I think this one is 19th), and it always attracts a lot of people. It happens on Bled, beautiful place on the famous Slovenian lake. On NTK conference, I will deliver a session about using Dynamic Access Control in production environments (session details are here), and a session about how to efficiently build and manage internal PKI (session details are here).

MSN And last, but definitely not less important, in the second week of April, fourth Bosnian Microsoft Network will happen. In the same place as last year (Banja Vrucica hotel resort), MSN4.0 will offer even better content and really great speakers from the whole region. Besides teaching there, I was also a member of content team, and I’m really satisfied with what we have done content wise. I’m very interested to see attendees feedback this year. On this MSN4.0 conference I will deliver a session about Windows Server 2012 R2 as a CloudOS (session details are here) and a session about upgrading to Exchange Server 2013 (session details are here). Besides these official sessions, I will also co-deliver one case-study session about Exchange&ADRMS implementation project in BH Telecom, that I was leading, together with a team member from customer side.

As you can see, a lot of presentation work is in front of me in next few weeks. Although preparation for all this sessions is not an easy job, I’m really looking forward to see my friends, colleagues and fellow MVPs from Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia and Bosnia.

See you there!!
