Principal Cloud Architect | Dual Microsoft MVP | AI & Agent Governance | Microsoft Purview | Trusted Data for AI
Bio
Nikki Chapple is a Principal Cloud Architect at CloudWay and a dual Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) in Microsoft 365 and Security. She specialises in AI and agent governance, Microsoft Purview, and helping organisations build trusted data foundations for AI across Microsoft 365, Copilot and AI agents.

With more than 35 years of experience spanning IT and business, Nikki helps organisations understand where sensitive information is overshared or exposed, strengthen data security and governance, and implement Microsoft Purview to protect critical information. Her work enables organisations to adopt AI and deploy AI agents with confidence by ensuring data remains trusted, secure and well-governed.

Nikki believes successful AI adoption starts with trusted, governed data, not the AI itself. As organisations embrace AI agents and autonomous workflows, she helps them establish the governance, security and compliance foundations needed to manage this new risk surface responsibly.

Nikki co-authored the Governance, Risk & Compliance competency of the Microsoft 365 Maturity Model and was recognised in Microsoft's People of Purview (2025) and with the UK Community Award for Security & Compliance Evangelist (2023). She is an international conference speaker, blogs at nikkichapple.com, and co-hosts the AI Governance & Data Security Show.

Daniel Laskewitz is a Principal Cloud Advocate at Microsoft.

The other half he spends with the people building the same things, in sessions and workshops and in the community, and what they tell him goes back to the product teams.

On stage he talks about getting an agent past the demo. Wiring it to real systems with MCP, working out when a plain connector is the better answer, and the part nobody puts in a keynote: making the thing safe to hand to somebody else. He has been speaking since 2015, often with a co-speaker.
