Microsoft Build developer conference starts on May 23

Microsoft’s developer conference will take place from May 23 this year. The company announced this. It is a mix between a physical event and a digital event, Microsoft says.

The physical event will be in Microsoft’s home base of Seattle in the United States, as appears on the site. Last year there was a more limited physical event, now the physical component will be larger. Microsoft holds Build every year and often announces new features for consumers, businesses and developers.

There will be a ‘pre-day’ on May 22 for physical attendees, although it is unknown what exactly will happen there. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella will also speak. Microsoft Build takes place two weeks after I/O, the developer conference that Google has scheduled for May 10.
