September MNUG Meetup

This one came together fast, and we're not mad about it. Two great sessions, real talk on what's actually changing in the ecosystem, and happy hour right after at Smack Shack.

About this meetup

Agenda 3:00 PM — Welcome + Community Updates + Call for Speakers 3:05 PM — What Changed in the Dynamics 365 Release Plan (and What You Actually Need to Know) Joe Tews, Co-Chair, MNUG The release plan changed. Joe's breaking down what's different, how your team should actually be consuming it now, and what F&O and Dynamics customers need to do differently because of it. No fluff, just what matters. 3:30 PM — Quick Break 3:35 PM — Copilot Studio Isn't a Chatbot Anymore: Building Real Agents Justin Trantham, Co-Founder @ FlowDevs / Prime Automator Justin's not doing an AI news recap.
