Book your meeting

As one of Microsoft’s longest and largest partners, Capgemini will be a proud sponsor of the Executive Connections at Microsoft Ignite 2024.

This conference will gather leaders to chart the course of their organization in the era of AI. This is your opportunity to gain insights and discover solutions to transform your organization and industry with Microsoft and Capgemini.

If you want to make an impact within your industry and business, you need partners who help you to deliver rapidly but also think differently. It might sound like an impossible task, but it doesn’t need to be.

Together, Microsoft and Capgemini are accelerating the pace and impact of migration and transformation projects. At Ignite, we will demonstrate how we bring a different path to enterprise generative AI, a different mindset, and a different skill set to your business needs.

Our mission is to empower you to stop imitating and start differentiating. Because ultimately different wins.

Experience this difference:

  • meet with our Microsoft industry and product experts
  • engage with our leading clients as they share their experiences
  • interact with demos showcasing what we can do in your industry
  • participate with peers in our roundtable on experiences harnessing generative AI-powered copilot and agent potential
  • hear from Microsoft execs as our guest speakers in our Cloud Realities podcast, recording live from the conference.
