Zoomtopia runs from 8th - 9th November 2022 and includes sessions to cater to audiences across all regions.

Here are five of our favorite sessions you definitely shouldn't miss at this edition of Zoomtopia.

1 - Vision and Product Keynote

When? Nov 8th 9:00 AM-10:30 AM

Eric Yuan will open Zoomtopia to discuss Zoom's vision for the entire communications stack.

Eric will be joined by Zoom's Chief Product Officer, Oded Gal, who will demonstrate not only the flexibility of the Zoom platform but its robustness.

2 - Enhancing Team Collaboration Before, During, and After Your Meetings

When? 8th Nov 11:00 AM-11:30 AM

Having recently renamed Zoom Chat to Zoom Team Chat, there's a major focus on getting channel and direct messaging right.

Rather than relying on Zoom purely for meetings, this session will introduce ways to make your entire collaboration experience productive.

Did you know that chat is available both inside and outside of meetings?

Join Zoom Product Managers, David Ball, John Beckmann, Emi Ristani, and Darin Brown, to learn various tips and tricks when using Zoom Team Chat.

When? 8th November 12:15 PM - 12:45 PM

If you follow Patrick Kelley on LinkedIn, you'll have noticed he's a huge advocate of using both Microsoft Teams and Zoom.

In fact, he used to work for Microsoft!

There is no better person to explain the Zoom and Microsoft Teams coexistence story and this session is sure to be standing room only as the number of enterprises using both Teams and Zoom continues to grow on a daily basis.

Expect to see demos of Zoom Phone within Teams, hosting a meeting in each other's platform, and maybe even a demo of Mio's chat interoperability.

Here's a sneak peek:
