As AI-powered tools like Microsoft Copilot become integral to daily workflows, many organizations are seeking ways to securely connect their internal systems to these intelligent agents. This webinar introduces the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — an open, flexible standard for surfacing internal tools and data to AI agents in a structured and secure way. We’ll explore how MCP servers allow your C# applications and business systems to register functional capabilities (or “tools”) that Copilot can call as part of natural language prompts. You’ll see how this bridges the gap between AI experiences and real backend logic — enabling agents to take meaningful actions inside your business environment. Designed for IT decision makers, architects, and dev team leads, this session offers a strategic overview with real implementation examples: What you’ll learn: What the Model Context Protocol (MCP) is and how it fits into Microsoft’s AI ecosystem How MCP servers allow internal systems to interact with AI agents like Copilot Key architecture and security considerations for deployment Real examples of MCP + Copilot integration in tools like Microsoft Teams, Azure DevOps, and custom applications How to get started with MCP using your existing C# skills Whether you’re actively building with Copilot or exploring how to bring AI into your internal systems, this webinar will equip you with a practical framework for AI integration that balances flexibility, control, and innovation.
