Microsoft announces to cancels MVP Summit

Due to the outbreak of the new coronavirus, the annual Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Summit that Microsoft originally planned to hold from March 15 to March 20 this year has now announced that it will be held online and canceled offline activities.

This year’s online MVP summit will be basically the same as the scheduled offline summit. At present, Microsoft has started sending emails to participating MVPs to further clarify the matter.

Now I have the email that MVP Summit will be online only this year. This is of course a big disappointment, but I think we all understand the reasoning behind it and will try to make the best of the situation.

More details will be made available later. pic.twitter.com/L6PzYm2BkP

Due to the impact of this epidemic, various conferences before the MVP Summit have also been canceled and postponed. Among them, the most influential may be MWC 2020. The MWC conference organizer GSMA had never insisted that it would never MWC 2020 was canceled, but in the end, it succumbed to the situation that major manufacturers have canceled their participation in the exhibition.

It is worth mentioning that Microsoft also has a Build 2020 conference in May this year, and Seattle has already had a case of infection with this coronavirus, so it is possible that Build 2020 conference will eventually face “cancel” or “delay.”
