Empowering Growth: Uniting Microsoft Dynamics Business Central Partners in Africa
Join us for a dynamic session dedicated to fostering collaboration and growth among Microsoft Dynamics Business Central partners in the vibrant African region. In this session we will hear from a couple of veterans of the Dynamics space in Africa exploring the immense potential of the diverse market. We will explore the market opportunities and give you an overview of what initiatives are available to the market in Africa in the Dynamics space. We often hear about a host of initiatives from Microsoft only to find out it's not available in the African market, so find out what is, and isn't available in our market, where to find more information, and how to access these initiatives.
Having spent 27 years training and supporting the African market, I am fully aware of the challenges and requirements of the market. I am hoping to announce some special deals negotiated specifically for the African market at this event and will be announcing some free training opportunities also specifically curated for the African market. We will also be announcing a new Business Central User Group for the African market in collaboration with some MVP's, so don't miss this session. Let's unite, inspire, and chart a prosperous course for the future of Business Central in Africa, fostering a thriving community that supports growth and innovation across the continent. Don't miss this chance to be part of a transformative movement, empowering partners to achieve new heights!
