The Cloud Skills Show: Introduction to Power Platform ⚡️

Watch on demand:

---

The Cloud Skills Show returned this Thursday with an episode on Microsoft's Power Platform community. Each week we bring guests together from the technical community in the UK and around the world to talk about learning, professional growth and community.

Together with my co-host Claire Smyth, we met Rory Neary, Samit Saini and Jese Navaranjan - 3 passionate people from the Power Platform community.

• Claire Smyth is the Community Program Manager for Microsoft UK and Ireland, and runs the Microsoft MVP and RD programmes.

• Rory Neary is a Power Platform Specialist, Community Organiser and Microsoft MVP for Business Applications. He runs the PowerApps4Kids community in London and is currently creating a Power Platform training series.

• Samit Saini is an IT Specialist at London's Heathrow Airport and a Microsoft MVP. He previously worked as a Security Guard at Heathrow, and PowerApps inspired his career change to IT.

• Jese Navaranjan is a Senior Consultant at Microsoft Partner Altius, and is also an MCSE, as well as a passionate community contributor. She previously worked at Heathrow (alongside Samit!) on PowerBI, and is now primarily focused on PowerApps.
