Guidelines from the organizers

AICD AI App Makers: From Idea to App with AI is one online session: Thursday 26 November 2026, from 20:00 to 21:15 Paris time, live on Microsoft Teams.

What the session covers:
We open the series with a map of the ways to build an app with AI in Power Apps today: the plan designer, Copilot, generative pages and canvas apps with coding agents.
We show what Ignite (17-20 Nov) changed for app makers, and where to go now that Power Apps Vibe and the App Builder agent close on 30 Nov.
We end with a short briefing on the App Makers Hackathon of 3-4 Dec: the tracks, the teams and how to take part.

Who we are looking for: A Power Apps maker or trainer who can demo the plan designer and generative pages live, and who knows the way forward for apps built with Power Apps Vibe.

Formats. Live talk with demo (25 minutes), pre-recorded talk with live Q&A (25 minutes), or lightning demo (10 minutes). Practical talks and live demos win over product pitches. Talks are in English.

Your time zone. The session starts at 20:00 Paris time. If that is late at night for you, choose the pre-recorded format: you send your recording 2 days before and answer questions live.

Dates. The call closes on Sunday 15 November 2026 at 23:59 Paris time. We inform speakers by Tuesday 17 November 2026, and accepted speakers confirm within 2 days. Accepted speakers send their slides and a backup recording 2 days before the session, and join a short tech check on Teams at 19:30 Paris time on the evening of the session.

Product names are welcome in your title and abstract when your talk is about that product. This is a community event: no sales pitches.
