Unwind & Connect - Microsoft Ignite Happy Hour ✨
Network, unwind, and toast to new ideas!
After a full day of breakthrough ideas, inspiring sessions, and nonstop networking at Microsoft Ignite 2025, it’s time to switch gears.
Join Netsmartz for an exclusive Happy Hour gathering, co-sponsored by Pax8 and Careerforce Pro along with SaaSNxt as our community sponsor, an evening designed to unwind, connect, and share ideas with fellow tech leaders, innovators, and partners.
What’s in Store?
A laid-back vibe - no pitches, no panels, just good company
Smart conversations - around AI, innovation, data, and what’s next
Real connections - meet peers, partners, and visionaries from across the Ignite community
Drinks & bites on us - because good ideas deserve good company
Whether you’re attending Ignite to explore new technologies, meet partners, or expand your circle, this is your space to relax and recharge.
Why During Microsoft Ignite?
Ignite brings together the brightest minds in AI, cloud, and digital transformation, all driving what’s next in tech. Proudly co-sponsored by Pax8 and Careerforce Pro, and supported by community sponsor SaaSNxt, our Happy Hour adds a human touch to innovation; a place to turn big ideas into real connections, one conversation (and one cocktail) at a time.
