DIRECTIONS EMEA 2018, October 29-31, The Netherlands
About Directions EMEA 2018
“Business Central rides the wave”
Directions EMEA is the independent conference for SMB focused Microsoft Partners, including Dynamics NAV/CRM, Dynamics 365, Office365 and Windows Azure partners and ISVs. It is organized by partners for partners. Directions EMEA brings together over 2100 attendees from Partners and ISV companies across Europe. The Directions conference enables the Dynamics community knowledge sharing, networking and discovering new opportunities for future growth and collaboration.
The sessions have already been defined, something could perhaps change \ be added or modified, as it has been for some years now, 3 different paths have been created for
- Technicals
- Consulting
- Sales & Pre-Sales
The sessions seem very interesting, in practice “Business Central rides the wave”, the word “NAV” is almost unused compared to last year.
