About the Workshop + What to Expect
As AI reshapes the way organizations work, collaborate, and solve problems, the Agent Build-A-Thon gives you & your teams access to technical advisors to demonstrate high value usage scenarios for M365 Copilot agents, validate your use cases, refine your agentic designs, provide technical assistance as you rapidly build your custom agents and prepare to deploy them.
HSO is excited to host a one-day in-person Agent Build-A-Thon in Burlington, MA on June 24th to help attendees accelerate their understanding and adoption of Agent AI.
