Microsoft Ignite kicks off today in Chicago, IL

BUILD 2015 closed its doors only a couple of days ago, but Microsoft is getting ready to start a new major event, this time aimed at enterprises and focused on the opportunities that its partners could create for this particular industry sector.

Microsoft Ignite will take place this year between May 4 and 8 in Chicago, IL, and the whole event will be streamed online, so anyone can watch it.

Satya Nadella and Joe Belfiore are two of the key figures that will take the stage to detail the company’s latest products, including Windows 10, which is becoming a very advanced product for enterprises looking to upgrade from Windows 7 or 8.

Needless to say, the company will also present all the other goodies that were introduced at BUILD, including Windows 10 for phones, Continuum for phones, HoloLens, and Azure, but Windows 10 as a whole will take the biggest part of the event.

For enterprises, Windows 10 won’t be available free of charge, but with a fee, so expect Nadella and Belfiore to share a little bit more on how the new operating system would be offered to them.

The in-person event is already sold out, so if you’re not attending the conference, your only option is the online webcast that will be revealed by Microsoft later today.
