On Wednesday September 7th, 2022, I’m co-organizing KNVI’s Knowledge BBQ Dutch at ZiPPERZ in Rotterdam. Fellow speakers Raymond Comvalius and Erwin Derksen complete the line-up for this Microsoft-inspired event.

About KNVI

KNVI organizes multiple meetings per month, publishes AG Connect both online and in print, and offers discounts to its members.

Knowledge BBQ

Starting at 2PM, the Knowledge BBQ Dutch offers:

2PM – 3PM Hybrid Identity, where to start

Many environments are still being managed like it’s 2003. Active Directory is only the on-premises side of Microsoft’s Entra product family. Find out how to get started with modern management of identity and access in this session by Raymond Comvalius and Sander Berkouwer

3:10PM – 4:10PM Modern Endpoint Management with Intune/Endpoint Manager

In this session, Erwin Derksen shares his experience with managing devices for organizations using Intune and Endpoint Manager. Erwin got rid of Group Policies, login scripts and other things that in the past got him down. Would you like to do the same?

4:20PM – 5:20PM Windows Hello for Business, opportunities for everyone

Windows Hello for Business is just a convenient way to sign into Windows-based devices, right? Sure, it is convenient, but there’s so much more going on with the device that elevates this feature to the best thing since sliced bread… at least when you ask Sander Berkouwer and Raymond Comvalius. They’ll show how to unlock the true nature of the feature while checking off many security requirements you thought you could never really achieve.

5:30PM – 8PM BBQ

10-minute breaks between the sessions offer attendees the opportunity to get a drink, catch a smoke and/or perform a bio break. It also offers the speakers to disconnect and reconnect. However, from 17:30 onwards, at the SPiNNERZ rooftop, with its exceptional view over the Rotterdam skyline, you don’t want to miss a minute of the drinks drinks and BBQ KNVI offers to all attendees!
