Windows 11 at Microsoft Technical Takeoff 2025

I couldn't be more excited to share the full list of Windows sessions planned for our third edition of the Microsoft Technical Takeoff!

Our engineering PMs in Windows and Windows cloud experiences have been working hard on deep dives and demos to help you get up to speed on how to configure, roll out, manage, and support the features and experiences you need to keep your organization secure, productive, and resilient.

While we're excited to walk you through the latest and greatest, this event is really all about you—the IT community. What questions do you have? Where can we provide insight to help you solve a challenge or unblock, well, a blocker. Where can we invest to make an enhancement, a policy change, an optimization that makes it easier for you to support your device estate?

Our engineering and product teams will be supporting Q&A live in the chat during each session—and continuing to monitor the chat throughout week. Post early, post often. Answering your questions is part of the Microsoft Technical Takeoff mission!
