Who Should Attend?
Already Committed
Organisations that approved Microsoft 365 investment one to three years ago and have never formally reviewed whether they are receiving the value they were promised. Licences are auto-renewing. Nobody is measuring utilisation. The board has no governance visibility over the M365 estate.
Being Asked to Expand
Organisations being asked by their IT team or provider to upgrade M365 tiers or add Microsoft Copilot licences — without a clear picture of whether the existing investment is fully deployed or delivering.

From Cloud Governance to Microsoft 365 Governance
In May, we examined cloud migration governance — the business case questions organisations should ask before approving a migration and the governance review that should happen after.

Speaker
John Currie - Director JEC Technologies
John Currie helps South African mid-market businesses bring clarity, governance, and accountability to technology investment decisions.
His work enables executives to move beyond vendor recommendations and make informed business decisions based on governance, risk visibility, compliance obligations, and measurable outcomes.
"Before our review, we assumed Microsoft 365 was simply working because licences were active. The governance assessment showed us where we were paying for capability we weren't using and where compliance risks existed."
“Before working through this framework, IT felt like a black hole. This approach finally gave us clarity on cost, risk, and priorities without adding complexity.”
— Operations Director
Mid-Market Manufacturing Business
“For the first time, we could have a board-level conversation about IT without jargon. The focus on visibility and control made immediate sense.”
