About us
Community-led.
Microsoft-powered.
The Power BI UK Community was founded in 2022 by a group of passionate data professionals working at Microsoft UK. What started as an informal way to share knowledge has grown into one of the UK's most active Power BI and Microsoft Fabric communities.
Community-first
We are not a corporate programme. This is a genuine community run by people who work with Power BI every day and want to share what they know.
Always free
Every session, every recording, every resource — completely free for Microsoft UK customers. No subscription, no hidden cost.
Regularly active
We run monthly live sessions with expert speakers, covering everything from beginner Power BI to advanced Microsoft Fabric engineering.
Our story
How we got here
First sessions delivered — started by Microsoft UK professionals to connect Power BI customers across the UK.
Regular monthly sessions launched with guest speakers from across the Microsoft data community.
Grew to over 2,000 members and expanded the programme to cover the full Microsoft Fabric platform alongside our Power BI roots.
Continued building out our session library with more technical deep-dives, customer-led talks, and Fabric engineering content.
The team
Meet the hosts
The community is led by a group of Microsoft employees who volunteer their time to organise events, source speakers, and keep the content fresh and relevant.
