Reimagining Intranet with SharePoint, Engage and Copilot!
Many organisations have a SharePoint intranet, but not everyone uses it. That is often because it is hard to find the right information or it feels like just another place to search.
In this session, you will learn how to turn your intranet into a helpful and smart platform using SharePoint, Viva Engage and Microsoft 365 Copilot. I will show you how Viva Engage helps with clear communication and connection across teams. You will see how SharePoint can bring structure to your content and how Copilot and SharePoint Agents can make your intranet easier to use.
By showcasing practical examples, like using Copilot-powered web parts to answer questions about policies or projects, and SharePoint Agents that help users find what they need without needing to ask a colleague. You will also learn how to set up your content so that Copilot understands it and gives useful answers.
This session is for IT admins and decision makers who want to improve the way people use the intranet. You will leave with practical tips on setup, permissions, and content quality to make your intranet more helpful and more used.
What you will learn:
How to combine SharePoint, Viva Engage and Copilot in your intranet
How to use SharePoint Agents in your intranet
How Copilot powered webparts can help users find and understand information

How to NOT make the headlines! Keeping your data out of public AI tools
Recent news highlights a recurring risk: sensitive personal data accidentally leaking into public AI tools. The question for organizations is no longer whether employees will use AI, but how to facilitate it safely. This session explores the technical and human barriers required to keep critical data within your organizational boundaries. This workshop is packed full of demos showing you how to implement the methods required to keep your data safe, and what the employees experience while using those AI tools.
Key Takeaways
Technical Guardrails: Using Microsoft Purview and Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps to block sensitive data uploads to untrusted LLMs.
The Human Element: Strategies for educating employees on data placement, specifically why certain information belongs in Microsoft 365 Copilot but not in public AI applications.
Balanced Governance: Maintaining data control without hindering innovation.
SharePoint Online got smarter! Organize, govern, and keep content fresh with the Knowledge Agent
The SharePoint Knowledge Agent brings built-in intelligence to your sites and document libraries. It automatically suggests and fills metadata columns with AI-extracted values, updates them as content changes, and writes data directly to your content types. You’ll learn how to use natural language to create rules that automate notifications or file actions, build custom views, and ask targeted questions to find exactly what you need.
At the site level, the agent helps you find broken links, uncover search gaps where users can’t find content, flag inactive pages, and generate new pages with Copilot.
We’ll cover how this agent improves content lifecycle management, compliance, and Copilot grounding across Microsoft 365.
Key takeaways:
Use Copilot to extract and maintain metadata for better governance and search.
Automate simple site and library actions without Power Automate.
Keep SharePoint sites healthy, current, and ready with Copilot.
