Intune Newsletter – 8th March 2024
Welcome to the pre-MVP summit newsletter, tomorrow I am off to Microsoft HQ to join other MVPs for our yearly get-together. Next week’s edition may be delayed as I will probably be either mid-air or jet-lagged.
For everyone attending, looking forward to seeing you there!
