Stefan Denninger

Stefan Denninger

Stefan started his IT career 25 years ago. The study of information systems parallel to the job has hand in hand fertilized the professional life.

The many stations from helpdesk, router configuration to business also had projects with MS Biztalk Server and many years with identity management.
The operational management of data centers and countless customer projects has recently resulted in the creation of a powerful cloud group with a focus on Microsoft Azure and Office 365.

The focus is currently on digitization in Industry 4.0 with IIoT.

The projects are now completely different, since production and IT had nothing to do with each other for a long time. The projects are very local and also hybrid. Therefore, the Azure Stack family and Azure as a hybrid solution are an important part.

If there is time I write information on https://blog.denninger.at, or send tweets at @stefandenninger

In April 2018, I was appointed Microsoft Regional Director.
In August 2019 I was awarded the title Microsoft MVP!

Steve Weiner

When the news of becoming a dad of twins turned me from professional drummer to professional computer nerd, I started work as a presales MDM engineer. Then, Windows 10 came along with incredible Surface devices and a new way to manage them. Since that time in early 2016, I have become obsessed with using Intune and eventually, Autopilot, to craft a true "Zero Touch" experience for end-user devices. I have made it my mission to displace traditional management methods where I can and empower organizations to embrace a cloud native endpoint that is more resilient and secure in this hybrid reality.

In 2023, I took my blog site, getrubix.com to more than articles when I started a YouTube channel dedicated to teaching modern management concepts around Intune, Autopilot and Entra ID. In just six months it reached over 1000 subscribers and I proudly host a Discord server of 300 members and growing. I'm thrilled to be part of the amazing Microsoft community of MVPs.

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.
