Beyond the Hype – Lessons on Power Platform
Tomáš will share his experience with developing small applications and huge transformative solutions. He will introduce us to specific client experiences with both Power Apps and Power BI. His session will offer valuable insights for managers who plan to maximize the potential of the Power Platform in their organizations (or are already working on it).
From small applications serving a handful of users to critical applications that transform the work of thousands, Tomáš will share his experiences – the good, the bad, and the scary.
He won’t be alone. He will be joined on stage by a long-term client experienced in working with multiple providers of Power Platform technologies. Together, they will demonstrate what is good, what is bad, and what is very bad. No script, just raw experience.
They will demonstrate how to go from an idea to a working application. They will share tips and lessons learned from small and large projects. You’ll hear about the smart decisions they’ve made themselves, as well as the mistakes they’ve made and learned from.



Pilots, Builders and Robots. What do they have in common?
Can Power Platform help teach pilots to fly airplanes? Or build a house faster? Can Power Platform play a pivotal role in these cases?
This presentation will offer an exploration of unique scenarios that relate to two specific customers and specific challenges. It will showcase custom-built verticalized solutions that have met their highly specialized requirements.
In this context, the speakers will open the question of the potential of AI assistants, which can be incredible thanks to the use of data generated by tools built in the Microsoft Power Platform ecosystem.
Be sure not to miss a demonstration of how the Power platform can truly empower and transform any industry.

Silence of the technical lambs: When you don’t speak up for user experience
How exciting is it to design your first home? You get to personalize it and make it a perfect fit for your lifestyle. Just like that, you can also create a business application to suit your users’ needs. A grand design to connect them to the business vision.
But what if your business application was put together based on decision-makers’ egos? What if they did not understand their end users’ needs and your app development team decided to stay silent? Despite the best intentions for your grand design, it all goes wrong. So, you are stuck in endless retrospectives, tech debt in your future sprints, and some very disappointed stakeholders.
In this session, let us take you through a tour of our digital app dollhouse where things have gone all sorts of wrong for users. From low adoption to jargon-filled custom fields to inconsistent process flows and anything in between, we are here to explain it all. A cautionary tale for all your business application projects. Remember, all good things are to those who wait.

How Can Microsoft Fabric Have an Impact on Your Business?
All this talk about Data-Ware-Lake-Delta-Beach-House-Lakes (or some combination of that) and Data, Yarn, Fabric integration, everything has got a bit… Meshy! Yes, my friends. The beat of the technology drum is certainly relentless. And with no limits to cloud scale and huge innovations from the biggest brains. Two years, it seems, have become the benchmark for tools to live and die by. Reach three years and you almost have a mature product. That said, Microsoft Fabric, the latest offering from the global software giant is no exception.
But what does this mean for the real world? For the data analysts, engineers, and scientists that need to continue answering everyday problems to inform business decisions.
In this session, we will firmly ignore the hype and focus on reality. With the pragmatic view of an experienced architect. The problem of gaining insights from our data hasn’t changed. So, what does this mean if implemented using Microsoft Fabric? What, why, and how is the tooling going to change our daily deliverables in the short term, medium and long term? Join me for these answers and more as we explore the impact of Microsoft Fabric-Server, erm, and Power. Resource. Thing!

Power Up Your Power BI: Unlock the Magic of Automation with PowerShell and become a data wizard
Do you consider yourself a Power BI developer, but the thought of coding, PowerShell, and cmdlets makes you freeze? Do you think that Power BI is a powerful tool, but feel like something is missing? Are you tired of spending hours manually publishing, updating, and maintaining your Power BI reports? Want to add some fun and reduce errors, while you sit back and relax? The answer you seek is here. I’ll show you how to harness the power of PowerShell to automate your Power BI workflow and take you out of your comfort zone.
In this session, I will take you through the journey of how to use PowerShell scripts to automate common Power BI tasks, from report deployments to data refreshes, parameter changes, and security management. I’ll show you how to navigate the “danger zone” of coding in PowerShell and take your Power BI game to the next level, even for those who are new to it. With some real-life business use cases that I’ve come across, you’ll see how automation can simplify your daily Power BI tasks.

Double Power: Power BI and Power Apps Integration
Power BI is an exceptional interactive reporting tool, while Power Apps excels as a business application development tool. Individually, they boast great capabilities, but their true power emerges when used in tandem.
By combining Power Apps and Power BI, you unlock unparalleled potential. Power Apps bridges the gap in Power BI by enabling data writing into data sources. Conversely, Power BI reports in Power Apps empower business users to transform data into actionable insights directly within the app.
This session will demonstrate step-by-step instructions and numerous demos on leveraging these tools together. Afterward, you’ll possess the knowledge and skills to seamlessly integrate them, unlocking their full potential for your business.
