Where this comes from
Two editions in, and the numbers are real
ELUK25 was our first edition — a half day in London in September 2025, with around 100 attendees and 10 speakers. Eight months later, Experts Live UK 2026 filled a full conference: 296 attendees, around 50 speakers, a 4.6★ average rating and an NPS of 76 from the post-event survey. ELUK27 is the third — a bigger expo footprint across two full days, and the same practitioner-first programme.
Two editions is not a trend line, so we will not show you a hockey-stick chart. We will show you what the people who came actually said — and let that do the selling.
Why this event
Built for the people doing the work
-
Practitioners first
Sessions are picked for what you can use back at work — real deployments, real failures, honest lessons learned. No product pitches from the stage.
-
Independent by design
Community-run and independently organised. Microsoft people speak here; Microsoft does not run it. Sponsors support the event — they do not set the programme.
-
Conversation over broadcast
Small enough that you can actually talk to the speakers, the MVPs and each other. The corridor conversations count for as much as the sessions.
Sponsor prospectus
Put your brand where the conversations happen
The expo floor runs through the whole event, and the audience is the person who chooses, deploys and lives with the tools. Sponsorship tiers and booth availability are live on the sponsor page — here is the shape of it.
