It’s official, Microsoft’s Build 2022 conference will be on May 24-26 this year. Once again, the company’s annual developer conference will be a virtual event that’s open to everyone, and registration will be available in late April.
While the session agenda isn’t live yet, the official Build 2022 website has some details about what to expect. “New for this year, experience market-specific content and connection opportunities for France, Germany, Japan, Latin America, and the UK,” the company says.
In recent years, Windows has pretty much taken a backseat at Microsoft’s Build conferences, with most announcements targeting developers. Last year, Microsoft chose to announce Windows 11 during a separate event in June, and it will be interesting to see if Windows 11 gets more attention at Build 2022.
If Microsoft’s annual developer conference is coming soon, the company will also be holding an event next week on April 5 featuring Chief Product Officer Panos Panay. While this event will focus on hybrid work, we expect Panay and other Microsoft execs to discuss new Windows 11 features and experiences.
