About the Event
Everyone’s talking about AI agents, but most businesses are still trying to answer a much simpler question: where do we actually start?
In this session, Stephen Meadowcroft, Head of Solutions Architecture at Novem, shows exactly how to build your first Microsoft Copilot agent and, more importantly, how to choose a use case that’s worth the effort.
Using a live demonstration, Stephen walks through the process of creating an HR policy assistant from scratch, covering everything from writing clear instructions and choosing knowledge sources to testing responses and sharing the finished agent with colleagues.
Along the way, he explains the common mistakes that cause agents to produce unreliable answers, why governance and permissions matter, and how to keep projects focused so they deliver real value from day one.
Whether you’re exploring Copilot for the first time or looking for practical ways to improve productivity across your business, this webinar will help you move from curiosity to something you can actually put into use.
