Marco De Sanctis

My name is Marco and I have an incredible passion for technology which I had the privilege to turn into a job. I’ve been working with .NET since the first beta, focusing on ASP.NET and, more generally, anything that is web related. I’ve been an early adopter of Microsoft Azure – who remembers the portal in Silverlight? :) – and, since its introduction, Cloud technologies have represented the core of my professional interest.

Today I work in the beautiful London, where I’m playing my part in saving the planet being the CTO at Mondra. Getting involved in the .NET and Azure community is also a key aspect of my profession: I’m convinced that knowledge sharing is one of the best ways to improve our professional skills, and therefore I try to dedicate as much time as I can to activities such as writing articles or speaking at conferences and meetups. Thanks to that, I’ve been awarded as a Microsoft MVP for the last 15 years in a row.

Microsoft MVPs

Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs) are recognized experts in their respective technical communities who actively share their knowledge and expertise with others. The MVP award is given to individuals who have made significant contributions to the Microsoft community through their involvement in technical forums, user groups, conferences, and other events. As a result, many MVPs are sought after as speakers at industry events, sharing their knowledge and insights with others.

When an MVP adds their award to their speaker profile, it can serve as a powerful endorsement of their expertise and credibility. Event organizers and attendees alike recognize the MVP award as a symbol of excellence in the field of Microsoft technology, and are more likely to view MVP speakers as authorities on the subject matter they are presenting. This can help MVPs secure speaking engagements, as well as increase their visibility and recognition within the community.

In addition to the benefits for the MVPs themselves, including the ability to network with other experts and gain exposure for their work, the community as a whole can benefit from the contributions of MVP speakers. By sharing their knowledge and insights with others, MVPs help to elevate the level of expertise and understanding within the Microsoft community, ultimately leading to better products and services for everyone.
