2005 Global Summit

The annual MVP Global Summit serves as the most exciting way for Microsoft to acknowledge this vibrant group of individuals for their deep and sustained technical expertise and true enthusiasm for the community. This year’s event will take place Sept. 28–Oct. 1 in Redmond, Wash., and will include executive keynote addresses from Steve Ballmer, chief executive officer, Kevin Johnson, group vice president of sales, marketing and services, and Jim Allchin, group vice president of Platforms at Microsoft. More details will be released closer to the event dates.

In addition to the 2005 MVP Global Summit, Microsoft already has hosted more than 10 MVP regional summits across three continents since the start of the program year, with two more regional summits planned for February and April. Through these events, MVPs have the opportunity to meet with each other and receive deep technical training on key product technologies and have access to leading Microsoft executives and product managers.
