Microsoft’s Build 2026 Session Catalog is Now Live

Microsoft has published the full session catalog for its Build 2026 developer conference, which will be held in San Francisco on June 2-3. This year, the main themes include developer tools and frameworks, cloud platform and data, model training, agents and apps, responsible AI, and… Windows.

As you can expect, AI is once again a big focus this year, and I’ve listed below a couple of sessions that seem to reflect what you can expect to hear during the developer event:

• Build and ship faster with a developer-optimized experience on Windows
• What to build next when AI can build everything
• Build local AI powered experiences w/ Microsoft Foundry on Windows
• Build and ship production-ready apps fast with Microsoft Fabric
• From prompt to app, build AI powered apps on Windows
• Monetize apps and agents with Microsoft Marketplace
• Use agents to build WinUI3 apps

Microsoft Build 2026 will kick off with a keynote featuring CEO Satya Nadella and other Microsoft leaders discussing how the company is “creating new opportunity for developers across our platforms in this era of AI.” The session catalog doesn’t list all speakers for each session yet. Still, Peter Steinberger, the creator of the AI personal assistant OpenClaw, who recently joined OpenAI, is listed as a featured speaker. So is Scott Hanselman, VP and member of Technical Staff at Microsoft and GitHub.

Microsoft plans to stream the keynote and select Build 2026 sessions, and you can already register for free to livestream them on this page. By registering today, you’ll also get access to a session scheduler and on-demand keynote and sessions.
