Microsoft Build //localhost: Accra

πŸ“ Accra, Ghana

In-person Microsoft Build //localhost stop in Accra focused on building and deploying AI on Azure with Microsoft Foundry and GitHub Copilot.

Microsoft Build //localhost: Accra is a one-day, in-person developer event in the Microsoft Build //localhost:EMEA series, held at Kekeli's Arcade, Adjiringanor, Accra on 20 June 2026. It is built for developers and cloud engineers who want to design, build, and deploy real-world AI solutions on Azure in a hands-on, implementation-first session rather than a keynote.

Per the official Microsoft Reactor page, attendees can expect key takeaways and announcements from Microsoft Build 2026, a deep dive into Azure AI and generative-AI use cases, live demos with Microsoft Foundry and GitHub Copilot, and guided labs to build and test AI-powered features end to end. The day also covers best practices for AI-powered applications and networking with the local AI developer community. The speaker line-up is notably deep, drawing on local Microsoft MVPs and MCTs including Samuel Adranyi, Bernard Boateng, Clifford Opoku, Fredrick Anaafi, Tchesco Ayih, Abigail Gbadago, and Thomas Festus Cudjoe, among others.

For AIWhatsOn readers, this is a strong West Africa data point: a Microsoft-run, free, AI-core developer day giving the Accra community direct, hands-on exposure to Microsoft Foundry, GitHub Copilot, and Azure AI off the back of Build 2026. Space is limited; register via the Reactor page.
