Copilot in Outlook: Meeting Preparation Is About to Get Smarter

on
Currently, the “Prepare for meetings with Copilot” feature requires at least three participants. Starting mid-October, this is changing. Copilot will soon support all meetings, including 1:1s. The rollout will begin in mid-October and is expected to complete by November 2025 according to the message center. With this update, you’ll also see new real-time insights in the Outlook meeting event form, summarizing relevant context, tasks, documents, and other resources. Plus, you’ll be able to chat with Copilot to confirm action items or better understand meeting goals. The more context Copilot has, the better it works. Meeting series with related emails, shared documents, Teams chats, and previous Copilot transcriptions deliver the richest experience. If your organization limits Copilot to in-meeting use only and deletes content afterward, you’ll miss out on much of this value. Here is a relevant " how to " guide for users.

9th MVP award!

on

 

July 6th 2023 is for many MVPs known as the "F5" day, where we sit and wait for that "You have been awarded..." email.... Or not.

I am yet again humbled and proud to have been re-awarded my MVP for the 9th time today. 

I have been asked many times what an MVP is and what it takes to become one. It is not something you become during your regular working hours is usually my reply. It takes a bit of passion for technology, and an inner drive to contribute to the community in one way or another. 

There are many paths to a MVP reward, but my contributions for the past years have been around organizing several User Groups in Norway and my hometown, and organizing a one day, free conference called MVP-Dagen, where we invite other MVPs to deliver content to the community. In addition to this, I try to engage in multiple discussions and try to provide as much feedback to different teams with Microsoft as possible.

Once again, I want to send my thanks to Microsoft, the MVP Team, PGI groups, MVP regional Lead and MVP product Leads. You know who you are! I am looking forward to yet another year!
