It’s time for Microsoft Inspire 2021, the tech giant’s largest partner event of the year! Considering all the upcoming advances Microsoft has planned and all of the challenges service providers need to address when protecting their clients’ Microsoft environments, Microsoft Inspire is a must-attend event. And because this year offers free registration, there’s no reason not to attend. ### When is #MSInspire 2021 The event will be taking place next Wednesday, July 14 from 11:15 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. EDT and Thursday, July 15 from 3:15 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. EDT. Full details and free registration is available at https://myinspire.microsoft.com/home This year’s event is expected to draw the same number of attendees as 2020, which attracted more than 115,000 registrants from 190 countries. While some end-users may join, the event is targeted at Microsoft partners and partner prospects. Last year, the event drew 27% business professionals, 24% tech pros, 21% executives, and 19% managers – three-quarters of them from outside the U.S. It is a fantastic opportunity to hear the latest on how Microsoft is helping organizations digitally transform their business, drive growth, and leverage the cloud and edge. Of course, Acronis will be there to demonstrate how we keep it all protected. ### Acronis presenting at Microsoft Inspire 2021 Acronis will be there with a major sponsorship presence and important speaking appearances to share how our solutions ensure Microsoft environments benefit from the comprehensive cyber protection we deliver. Beginning at 1:30 p.m. EDT on Thursday, Acronis will present a live Table Topic session entitled Lessons for MSPs from Professional Sports Teams on Protecting Microsoft Environments. The session will feature tech leaders from our [professional sports partners](https://acronis.sport/), as well as Acronis executives Pat Hurley, Ronan McCurtin, and Craig Joseph. The presentation will reveal how managed service providers (MSPs) can use the same best practices and Acronis technologies that these sports champions rely on when protecting their fans and their own valuable data. MSPs will see how easy it is to protect their clients against downtime and data loss – whether the cause is an accident, a hardware failure, a ransomware attack, or some other threat. Acronis will also have a presence in the Microsoft Partner Showcase, which will include: * Three virtual panel sessions focused on cyber protection for Microsoft environments * A video case study of how Acronis sports partner Arsenal FC relies on our technology to protect its edge in business and on the pitch * Demos of [Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud)](https://www.acronis.com/en-us/products/cloud/cyber-protect/), its service provider solution that unifies backup, cybersecurity, and endpoint protection management in one, as well as the [Advanced Security](https://www.acronis.com/en-us/products/cloud/cyber-protect/security/) and [Advanced Disaster Recovery](https://www.acronis.com/en-us/products/cloud/cyber-protect/disaster-recovery/) packs that enable MSPs to enhance and extend their services * An array of Acronis educational assets on cyber protection for Microsoft and other environments, including more than 30 workload types. ### Register for free With Microsoft Inspire 2021 being offered as a free virtual event, it presents a great opportunity for MSPs and other business and tech leaders to learn more about Acronis cyber protection solutions for Microsoft and other environments, and to network with other attendees and exhibitors.
