What's New in Microsoft 365 Copilot: The Updates That Matter

Microsoft 365 Copilot has changed significantly over the past year, with new capabilities rolling out across apps and entirely new Copilot experiences emerging.

In this session, we’ll focus on what’s changed in the past six to twelve months of Microsoft 365 Copilot updates.

You’ll get a practical tour of recent enhancements across Teams, Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and OneDrive, along with newer experiences such as Copilot Pages, SharePoint agents, and task-oriented Copilot workflows. We’ll also explore how Copilot Studio enables organizations to extend and customize Copilot using grounding data, connectors, and tailored instructions.

This session focuses on real world usage: how Copilot’s reasoning, collaboration, and context awareness have evolved, how prompting strategies have changed, and where Copilot can now support work from idea to execution.

We’ll also touch on governance, security, and adoption considerations that are especially relevant as Copilot becomes more embedded in everyday work.
