On March 16th, the Power Platform community in Canada, especially in Vancouver, experienced an extraordinary day. Microsoft Vancouver hosted the Canadian Power Platform Summit 2024, with over 200 enthusiastic participants, 30 top-notch speakers, and 15 prominent sponsors, the event was a remarkable gathering of like-minded individuals passionate about Microsoft Power Platform.

Lessons Learned and Highlights
Here are my lessons learned from this event:
- Chase Your Dreams: This event stressed how important it is to keep working hard towards your dreams and ideas. Turning your goals into reality requires staying dedicated, putting in effort, and never giving up.
- Engaging with Community Leaders: I had a great time talking with Microsoft MVPs and community leaders. These folks weren’t just smart; they were also friendly, which made conversations with them fun and enlightening.
- Unlocking Vancouver’s Potential: Vancouver was shown to have lots of potential for Power Platform development. The event pointed out a growing interest in this field, suggesting chances for smart plans to build up the local community even more.
- The Power of Teamwork: The event highlighted how working together is key to success. When people collaborate well, tasks get done smoother, productivity goes up, and the results are better. It showed how important it is for a team to work together to reach their goals.

A huge shout out to the organizers: Éric Sauvé 🇨🇦, Scott Durow, Chris Piasecki, Nick Doelman and Victor Dantas whose vision turned this event into a reality.
