Officially 'The European Microsoft Fabric + SQL Community Conference 2026' (FabCon Europe + SQLCon Europe), organized by ESPC.

Speakers: full list from the live programme (one entry per speaker per session, including AMA panels and Inspire Stage) plus 13 speakers listed on the speakers page without a programme session (talk_title null). Two programme slots (W09, INSPIRE11) still showed 'Session Coming Soon'. Abstracts truncated to 1-2 sentences from session pages.
