Microsoft’s Tech for Social Impact (TSI) team and Microsoft Gold Partners,
m-hance and Smartdesc, are pleased to invite you to join us in-person for our event: Digital Evolution in Plain English – the charity journey to digital excellence.

Morning session 11:00 – 12:30
"Digital" can be a buzzword that means different things to different people. Getting to grips with how your charity can improve their digital systems can be daunting, bewildering and very expensive.

In this session Smartdesc, a Microsoft Gold Partner whose sole focus is charities and nonprofits, is joined by Microsoft’s Tech for Social Impact team to take you on a simple journey, showing you how to approach digital transformation in a pragmatic, non-technical and affordable way.

The journey consists of 5 stages; we will show you what each step entails, how to minimise costs, and share real life examples from other charities that have implemented them using Microsoft toolsets.

  1. Foundations – your infrastructure – getting your house in order with Microsoft 365 & Azure
  2. Security – ensuring data is secure no matter where staff is working or on what device
  3. Collaboration – making the most of Microsoft Teams and other Microsoft tools to streamline comms
  4. Automation – using the Microsoft Power Platform to automate mundane or repetitive tasks
  5. CRM – how Microsoft Dynamics and Microsoft Cloud for Nonprofit can ultimately help you achieve digital maturity

Lunch and networking 12:30 – 13:30

Afternoon session 13:30 – 15:00
