Microsoft Ignite 2026: The Executive debrief

Microsoft Ignite brings together some of Microsoft’s most important announcements and provides a view of where its technology ecosystem is heading. This year, the agenda spans AI and agents, Copilot, cloud, data and security, with a strong focus on how organisations can turn emerging technology into business impact.

Join Codec for an executive debrief on Microsoft Ignite 2026, where we’ll cut through the volume of announcements and focus on the developments that matter most to business and technology leaders.

Our team will unpack the biggest updates, emerging capabilities and changes across the Microsoft landscape, looking beyond individual product announcements to explore what they could mean for your technology strategy, AI adoption, security, data and future investment decisions.

Hear first-hand from Tushar Kumar, Security Lead; Alberto Merinos, Data & AI Lead; and Brian Illand, Head of Technical Delivery, AI Business Solutions Practice, who attended Ignite and will bring together perspectives across security, AI, data and technical delivery to highlight the developments organisations should be paying attention to.

Rather than a technical deep dive, this session is designed to give leaders a clear view of where Microsoft is heading and what organisations should be preparing for next.

You’ll leave with a practical understanding of the key developments from Ignite, their potential business impact, and the areas worth keeping on your radar as you plan for 2027 and beyond.
