Microsoft and Spanish Point Technologies invites CEOs and CTOs from product-led software companies to a closed, invitation‑only executive forum focused on the realities of building, scaling and operating modern software platforms. Throughout the session, senior executives from high technology or software companies will exchange insight on the issues currently top of mind for executive teams:

• Turning customer analytics into a sustained competitive advantage
• Controlling and optimising Azure platform costs as scale increases
• Applying AI in customer‑facing solutions in ways that deliver measurable business value

The session will be hosted by John Corley, CEO of Spanish Point Technologies, who will share first‑hand experience from building and operating large‑scale, mission‑critical software platforms on Microsoft Azure. Spanish Point's software solution for Collective Management Organisations in the music industry, Matching Engine, uses Databricks within Azure AI to deliver market‑leading, highly configurable analytics and reporting. Built on a full data lakehouse architecture, the platform gives customers direct access to their underlying data, enabling advanced analytics and tailored queries. Running a platform of this scale has given Spanish Point deep, practical experience in:

• Designing analytics architectures that perform under sustained data volumes
• Managing Azure cost at scale while maintaining performance and resilience
• Embedding AI into production systems that underpin real‑world financial outcomes

This experience will be shared openly as part of the forum. Lunch will be provided for all roundtable participants.
