Time is certainly flying by! You may remember a blog post of ours back in March titled “Rencore on Tour”, which was our very own guidebook on some of the great events we were lucky to attended between April through to June. Now in September, we wanted to take a look at some of the SharePoint and Office 365 events coming up over the next few months that we’ll be attending, speaking at or sponsoring.
SHAREDEV Cologne, Germany. September 11th 2015
We’re kicking things off this Fri
day in Cologne, where we’ll be sponsoring the SHAREDEV event as a silver partner. Matthias will be speaking about the ‘Transformation of SharePoint Farm Solutions to the App Model’ – if you’re there, check it out! ShareDev Cologne is aimed at software developers, technical decision makers, architects and IT professionals in the areas of SharePoint, Office 365 and Azure. We’re excited to learn and discuss the latest and most important issues regarding everything SharePoint, Office 365 and Azure.

SharePoint Saturday Barcelona, Spain. September 26th 2015
Our last event in September sees our first trip to sunny Spain since the last European SharePoint Conference last year, where we’ll be both speaking and sponsoring. Matthias is part of a great speaker lineup, which you can take a look at here. There’s some fantastic sessions planned, from ‘How to do everything in SharePoint and PowerShell’ to ‘Running Provider Hosted Apps On-Premise’. Well worth a visit.

COLLAB365, Online Global Conference. October 7th-8th 2015
Collab365 is the world’s biggest SharePoint, Office 365 and Azure online conference. As the successor of SP4, which Matthias, Hugh organized last year together with the core team, it’s one we’re really excited about! With an estimated 10,000 attendees, the conference includes over 120 speakers, 7 tracks in 4 different languages and will run for 24 hours! We’re very proud to be sponsoring with SPCAF Professional licenses, as well as sponsoring individual sessions, and running our SPCAF ‘Code Clinic’. The clinic is a great opportunity for attendees to let Hugh analyze their solutions live using SPCAF.
Have a look at all the details on Collab365 here.
SharePoint Saturday Munich, Germany. October 10th 2015
October brings our return to Munich for SharePoint Saturday. As hosts of this inaugural event we can’t wait for it to get started. From the venue to the speakers, it’s set to be a fantastic day. Microsoft Technical Product Manager – Jeremy Thake – will open the event with his keynote on the future of Office Development. Add to that a world class speaker lineup, there should be plenty on offer for everyone who’s attending. The entire Rencore team will be there, and best of all there will be free beers available at the end of day SharePint as well as a raffle, offering up some cool prizes from our sponsors. For more details you check out our blog – All you need to know about SPSMunich.
We’d also like to mention that this will be the first event for the newest member of our team, Tobias! We’re sure he’s excited as we are to get everything underway, so make sure you come and say hello to him (and the entire Rencore team) if you’re attending!

Unity Connect Amsterdam, Netherlands. October 12th-14th 2015
Previously known as SharePoint Connect, Unity Connect Amsterdam’s unique agenda features some awesome keynotes, sessions, and workshops led by renowned technical and thought leaders. Speakers include Jeremy Thake, Wictor Wilén, Andrew Connell and Vesa Juvonen to name a few, along with the Microsoft Office 365 product team and the European and global SharePoint and Office 365 communities. Both Hugh and Matthias will be there, with Matthias giving a talk on the Code Quality of SP Solutions and Add-Ins.

SharePoint Saturday Oslo, Norway. October 17th 2015
As we journey to Norway, Hugh will be doing his own talk on JavaScript best practices, Add-in Model and On Premises. If you’re going to SPS Oslo you definitely don’t want to miss this!
Hugh: “My aim for this session is to bring my development experience – and my experience as the Lead Developer at Rencore on SPCAF – to demonstrate how development differs in JavaScript depending on the context you write it. How the structure works, and bring in some groundwork to ensure faster development and less overhead due to bugs and issues that can arise.”
It’s something us and Hugh are very excited about, and attendees can expect to be educated in the following:
- The development patterns in detail and how they work, so you can keep your code maintainable
- Top best practices for writing your code, for performance and security
- How working in each model cloud/hybrid/on premises affects the way you develop
- Governance decisions when choosing frameworks, and how to interweave this into your support model

Metalogix Roadshow, October 2015
As if October is not already busy enough, Matthias will be back in Germany once again on the Metalogix Roadshow like earlier this year. In Cologne on the 22nd of October and Munich on the 29th, Matthias will be holding the keynote in Metalogix’s ‘Move, Manage, and Secure Collaboration Content’ event about how to ‘Take your business to the cloud’. Exploring Office 365 and much more, it’s sure to be an exciting series of events.
European SharePoint Conference, Stockholm, Sweden. November 9th-12th 2015
One of the biggest events on our list on so far the last this year, the European SharePoint Conference is another fantastic opportunity for you to hear from the best minds in the business. Jeff Taper from Microsoft, known as ‘The Father of SharePoint’ is part of a brilliant keynote. Jeff, Seth Patton and Bill Baer will be sharing Microsoft’s vision and roadmap for SharePoint and OneDrive. In addition, both Matthias and Hugh will be giving together three sessions at the European SharePoint conference. Overall, sessions offer up a comprehensive breakdown of the latest innovations in SharePoint and Office 365 technologies. This includes SharePoint 2016 and Office 365 Next-Gen Portals as well as practical, actionable advice on how to leverage SharePoint 2013 to the best of your ability. If you like the sound of the that, then the European SharePoint Conference 2015 is a must in your calendar!
This will mark Tobias’ second Rencore event, so we’re glad to see that he’s wasting no time getting into the swing of things already!
Make sure to meet all of us at the Rencore booth #81 and get an SPCAF demo or some of our swag 🙂

On the road again
Our Rencore on Tour journey started all the way back in February of this year and we can’t believe that we are able to finish out the year still attending so many events. The chance to communicate with the SharePoint community across different countries is something we really value and hope to continue into the future. We’ll be looking to rack up the air miles once again next year!
