19:00 - 19:40 - How about this- Data and Power Automate the right way, Laura Graham-Brown

Power Automate is a great low-code automation tool that we all know and love. Sometimes though we push Power Automate to do things it was never meant to do. I often have to remind people it is Power Automate not Power Integrate. Looping through 10,000 records is not a great idea in Power Automate
In this session we will look at how we can get Power Automate to make data tools do the dirty work and Power Automate do what it does best and orchestrate the work.
Lots of demos and laughter

20:10 - 20:50 - Where on earth is Nathan - exploring multi-agent in Azure AI Foundry, Kevin McDonnell

With the latest announcements from Build, you can now create multi-agent solutions that automate your processes. But how? What does that look like? Where on earth is Nathan?
In this session, I will run through a live demo of Azure AI Foundry to build up a solution called Where on earth is Nathan which is a game that all can play to work out where a randomly selected photo is. I'll build up from the orchestrator agent to specific task based agents and how they connect together in Foundry. Then I'll show how this can actually be built into either your own web app or Copilot itself, talking through the process on the decisions that you need to make, where you need to set up boundaries and techniques for shipping Nathan out to these far flung locations.
After this session, you will:
- Know how to use Azure AI Foundry
- Understand how to set up different agents
- Understand how to connect them together
- Learn how to integrate your tools and knowledge
All this with minimal slides!
