Microsoft has long had a thriving technical community. From members here on the Microsoft Tech Community forums to in-person events and more around the world, the community has supported learning, career development, and personal development. Community initiatives, like SharePoint Saturdays that were already evolving to embrace more Microsoft 365 services, were deeply impacted by the pandemic. Those of us committed to supporting community, like Jeff, myself, and others, have been discussing the situation for some time and those discussions have led to the creation of this new Community Initiative.
