Microsoft held their now twice yearly Ignite conference a few weeks ago, with the usual firehose of announcements - as usual, this included some items which aren't really "new news" at all and some parsing is needed. It always hard to keep up with the detail of developments and launch dates, but never more so than now. Not only are Microsoft keeping their foot to the floor on innovation, but also with some bold and surprising new products and experiences such as Mesh for Teams and Microsoft Loop. Whilst the "Ignite Book of News" that Microsoft create is useful (link at the end), I find myself needing a more concise summary to reference when talking to inside Content+Cloud or with clients. For the last few events I've created "Ignite on a slide" summaries, presenting my view of key announcements and expected availability dates.
In this post you'll find the slides as images, and a downloadable deck which combines all of them. The following areas are covered:
- Teams
- Power Platform
- Microsoft Viva
- New products and experiences (Microsoft Loop, Mesh, Context IQ, Clipchamp etc)
- SharePoint Syntex
Feel free to re-use or share.

Of course, my summaries are somewhat subjective and you might feel there's something I've missed - but hopefully they're useful somehow.

Hopefully these summaries are useful in some form and you're free to use them as you like. When you need more detail on any of these announcements (and you will), I highly recommend using Microsoft's published "Book of News":
