Laurent Bugnion

Cloud Developer Advocate

Microsoft

I work as Principal Cloud Advocate for Microsoft Azure after almost 10 years spent working for IdentityMine and Valorem, two leading firms in Microsoft technologies. I code in Azure, .NET, Blazor, Windows, WPF, ASP.NET, JavaScript. On my free time, I write for technical publications, publish technical videos on YouTube, and my blog is on blog.galasoft.ch. I am a frequent speaker at conferences such as Microsoft Ignite, Microsoft Build, VSLive!, Techorama, DevSum and many other international events. Prior to joining Microsoft, I was a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional for Windows development from 2007 to 2017, a Microsoft Regional Director from 2013 and a Xamarin Most Valuable Professional from 2015. I am also the author of the (former) well-known open source framework MVVM Light for Windows, WPF and Xamarin.
