Microsoft 365 Power Up Series (Virtual)

Description

Microsoft 365 Lunch Series – Every Wednesday in March

Join us over lunch each Wednesday in March to explore productivity and collaboration features within Microsoft 365.

March 4 Topic: Microsoft Loop

Microsoft Loop is included in most Microsoft 365 subscriptions — yet it’s often overlooked. What does it do? It takes collaboration to the next level.

If you’re still emailing document attachments or even sharing OneDrive links back and forth, Loop may completely redefine how your team works on projects — enabling real-time, dynamic collaboration across apps and teams.

BONUS OFFER

About the Presenter

Valerie Polyakova began her Microsoft journey in 2018 on the Microsoft Cloud Team at Tech Data (now TD SYNNEX), a global distributor headquartered in Clearwater, FL. There, she supported and educated more than 300 IT partners on Microsoft solutions.

In 2020, she joined Microsoft’s #1 partner in South Africa during their U.S. expansion. After that operation concluded, she transitioned to one of her top former partners — Microsoft’s #1 U.S. partner for Teams Voice implementations — where she served as a Microsoft Business Development Manager. In that role, she supported Enterprise Account Managers across the Southeast and contributed to projects for organizations including Carnival Cruise Line and Auburn University.

Over the past three years, while expanding into the broader IT channel and working across multiple OEMs, Valerie has continued leading Microsoft-focused initiatives for her clients — reigniting her passion for the Microsoft ecosystem. She looks forward to sharing that expertise with the St. Pete business community.
