Business Chat introduced the concept of a "loop workspace" where Copilot collaborates with team members

Other highlights include improved multitasking in Teams, a "Follow a meeting" feature, Avatars for video fatigue, and SharePoint's upgraded features with Copilot integration. The conference emphasized the migration to the cloud, artificial intelligence, and the Power Platform, enabling no-code/low-code automation and AI assistance through Copilot.
