Last week, I had the privilege of attending the first-ever Microsoft Community Days in Madrid, and I’m still buzzing with inspiration. This wasn’t just another tech event—it was a celebration of collaboration, innovation, and the power of community.
With nearly 100 attendees from across Spain and beyond, the event brought together a vibrant mix of developers, data professionals, AI enthusiasts, and community leaders. Hosted at the stunning Microsoft Ibérica offices, the day was packed with cutting-edge sessions, personal stories, and meaningful connections.
A Highlight: Torpedo’s TAIB Presentation
One of the standout moments was the presentation by Torpedo on their groundbreaking solution: TAIB (Torpedo AI for Business). TAIB is a multi-agent AI platform designed for small and medium-sized businesses, with a unique twist—it works offline.
“TAIB is about empowering SMBs to harness AI without compromising on connectivity or privacy,” said one of the presenters. “It’s AI that works where you work.”
The demo showcased how TAIB can:
- Automate business processes without cloud dependency
- Provide intelligent insights in real-time
- Operate securely in offline environments
- Support decision-making in resource-constrained settings
It was a powerful reminder that AI innovation doesn’t have to be cloud-dependent to be impactful.
Key Takeaways from the Sessions
Here are some highlights from the day’s sessions:
- Azure: Best practices for scalable cloud architecture
- Power Platform: Real-world use cases for low-code automation
- AI & Data: Strategies for ethical and effective implementation
- Soft Skills: How to lead with empathy and communicate with impact
- Community Projects: Inspiring stories of grassroots innovation
“It’s not just about the tech—it’s about the people behind it,” shared one attendee. “This event reminded me why I love being part of this community.”
