Data8 is Proud to be a Gold Sponsor of Scottish Summit 2026
We are thrilled to announce that Data8 is a Gold Sponsor of Scottish Summit 2026. Taking place on the 2nd – 3rd of October and hosted for the very first time at the iconic Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh, this year’s summit promises to be the most exciting and ambitious one yet.
Connecting Experts, Innovators, and Fanatics
Scottish Summit is one of the UK’s most celebrated Microsoft community events, dedicated to promoting innovation, inclusivity, and collaboration within the tech industry. Each year, it brings together professionals, enthusiasts, and aspiring talents from across the globe for two action-packed days of learning, sharing ideas, and building meaningful connections.
What makes Scottish Summit truly special is its community-first ethos. It’s not just a conference – it’s a movement, championing diversity and ensuring that voices from all backgrounds have a seat at the table. This year’s move to Murrayfield Stadium reflects just how far the event has grown, offering an even bigger stage for the ideas and conversations that are shaping the future of technology.
A Golden Opportunity
Sponsoring Scottish Summit 2026 was an easy decision for us. With a core focus on the Microsoft Cloud ecosystem, the event is the perfect place for us to connect with like-minded professionals, share our expertise across the Microsoft stack (including in Power Platform and Dynamics 365), and explore how AI can play a pivotal role in data quality across your organisation.
We’re passionate about helping organisations work with cleaner, more accurate data and events like this give us the opportunity to have conversations with people who feel that challenge every day. Whether you’re already using Power Platform/Dynamics 365 or exploring your options, we’d love to talk about how better data quality can transform the way your business operates.
Beyond technology, Data8 has always been committed to fostering a sense of community and equality within the tech industry. We are incredibly proud to support an event that places diversity and inclusivity at its core, and we look forward to playing our part in growing and strengthening that community.
Building with Heart in the Age of AI
The theme of Scottish Summit 2026, Building with Heart in the Age of AI, tackles one of the most important questions facing the tech industry today: how do we work effectively and responsibly alongside artificial intelligence?
Keynote speaker, Martin Woodward (VP of Developer Relations at GitHub), will lead the conversation on getting the best from AI by keeping humans firmly in the loop, implementing the right safeguards, and embedding AI thoughtfully within your teams and workflows. It’s a topic that sits close to our hearts at Data8, where we believe AI is most powerful when it’s built on a foundation of high-quality, trustworthy data.
