Build 2017: Hub and Expo Show Floor Tour

 

Every year as part of the Build conference for developers, Microsoft hosts a showcase called The Hub.

The hub is an area where attendees at the conference can meet with Microsoft Partners to learn about various solutions that are available using Microsoft products and services plus there are Microsoft booths with representatives from the various teams to talk about their offerings.

This year, just like in the past, The Hub is a constant hive of activity as attendees come in to visit various booths in between their own sessions.

However, since we are in Microsoft's own backyard in downtown Seattle this year it seems there are many more product teams from the company in The Hub then when the event is out of town.

That is a good thing because it gives Build 2017 attendees a much higher degree of access to Microsoft employees to talk about all the new products, services, and other news from the keynotes.

So take a look through the gallery and see the sheer madness that is the 2017 version of the Build Hub and showcase.

Note: All of these images were taken with the Samsung Galaxy S8.

Richard Hay

Senior Content Producer, IT Pro Today (Informa Tech)

I served for 29 plus years in the U.S. Navy and retired as a Master Chief Petty Officer in November 2011. My work background in the Navy was telecommunications related so my hobby of computers fit well with what I did for the Navy. I consider myself a tech geek and enjoy most things in that arena.

My first website – AnotherWin95.com – came online in 1995. Back then I used GeoCities Web Hosting for it and WindowsObserver.com is the result of the work I have done on that site since 1995.

In January 2010 my community contributions were recognized by Microsoft when I received my first Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award for the Windows Operating System. Since then I have been renewed as a Microsoft MVP each subsequent year since that initial award. I am also a member of the inaugural group of Windows Insider MVPs which began in 2016.

I previously hosted the Observed Tech PODCAST for 10 years and 317 episodes and now host a new podcast called Faith, Tech, and Space. 

I began contributing to Penton Technology websites in January 2015 and in April 2017 I was hired as the Senior Content Producer for Penton Technology which is now Informa Tech. In that role, I contribute to ITPro Today and cover operating systems, enterprise technology, and productivity.
