I'm very passionate about data and analytics. I've spent a massive amount of time learning Power BI. Through this learning process I felt that others may also be interested. Thus, I created a website, a knowledge repository for all things Power BI, ( powerbi.tips ). This site is uniquely set up for people to read and learn about data modeling and visualizations within Power BI.

I help teams modernize apps and platforms in the Microsoft ecosystem—Azure, GitHub, Power Platform, and identity (Microsoft Entra)—with a bias toward real-world constraints and practical outcomes. I’ve spent 20+ years building and advising solutions across manufacturing, healthcare, insurance, and financial services.

My sessions are story-driven and demo-heavy: less “cloud mythology,” more “here’s the pattern, here’s the pitfall, here’s the fix.” Recent topics include practical GPT/agent builds, Microsoft Fabric in real workloads, secure identity, and modern delivery pipelines.

Based in Milwaukee, available nationwide—and frequently in Europe (Nordics/Baltics, incl. Stockholm & Riga). I’m also the creator of the biweekly LinkedIn newsletter Tech Trekking, connecting emerging tech to what actually works in the field

Ivan Font Miñarro

Ivan Font Miñarro

I had an unusual start at university — my first year was in Medicine. Soon I discovered my path was elsewhere, and I pivoted into Industrial Engineering at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) in Barcelona. That early change shaped how I approach challenges today: with curiosity, adaptability, and a strong analytical mindset.

After graduating, I stepped straight into the world of ERP, working with Microsoft Dynamics AX (2009, 2012) and evolving alongside the ecosystem into what is now Dynamics 365. From the beginning, I was fortunate to go beyond pure ERP implementation — combining functional and technical work with Business Intelligence, systems architecture, and later, data and AI-driven solutions.

Today, I lead the technical department at a Microsoft partner consultancy, where I’m responsible for architecture, development standards, and innovation across projects involving Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, Power Platform, Azure, and AI. My role sits at the intersection of technology, people, and strategy: designing scalable solutions while helping teams grow technically and professionally.

One of the most meaningful parts of my job is mentoring. I was lucky to have people who invested in my growth early in my career, and now I strive to do the same for others. Watching a colleague take their first independent “step” — solving a problem, leading a feature, making a design decision — is one of the most rewarding moments in my day-to-day work.

Beyond delivery, I’m passionate about sharing knowledge through talks, technical content, and community initiatives, especially around applied AI in business applications. I strongly believe that technology creates real impact only when it empowers people — both users and the professionals building the solutions.

Working in IT consultancies in both the Netherlands and the UK, I have gained experience in a number of different companies and different sectors and have developed a highly flexible skillset. From a background in document management, content management and workflow to now specialising in SharePoint based solutions and business development.

Working in an industry that is always changing, with so much new technology, it is important to keep up with new developments. My blog started as a way of expressing my views on technology, but has now reached explosive levels. Seeing the growth of followers and knowing that people were interested in my insights and opinions pushed me forward. It has resulted in my views being noticed by Microsoft and I have achieved their ‘Most Valued Professional’ accolade or MVP for office servers and services - a career highlight

Delivering the impossible in the client’s eyes by providing effective technology solutions to a problem they knew they had, but didn’t know how to solve is extremely satisfying.

I am extremely active within the SharePoint, Power Apps, Power Automate and Teams communities.

Technology is my main inspiration in life but I also love sport. I have been coaching Football and Korfball, the Dutch version of basketball, for over 25 years and with a number of clubs across the UK I am able to continue playing.
