Microsoft has officially declared that it will be holding the Build 2026 Developer Conference from June 2 to June 3, 2026, at Fort Mason in San Francisco. Previously, the event was held in Seattle, and it was scheduled for May. However, this time, the venue has been shifted to San Francisco, and the dates have been moved to June. The decision to choose San Francisco as the host city stems from its position as a global hub for the artificial intelligence industry, enabling Microsoft to foster a more engaging and immersive environment for networking and knowledge-sharing. To ensure a meaningful and in-depth experience, the conference will limit attendance to 2,500 participants, striking a balance between interactive sessions, content announcements, and technical showcases. Additionally, this year's conference will feature an expanded roster of special guests, with numerous industry experts offering valuable insights, while Microsoft's top executive team will also take the stage to deliver keynote speeches.
