This hands-on workshop is for developers, senior software engineers, IT pros, architects, IT managers, citizen developers, product managers, IT leaders, enterprise architects, chief analytics officers, CIOs, CTOs, and other decision-makers who want to learn how to seamlessly integrate AI applications and agents into Azure AI Foundry and Microsoft Copilot Studio using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Experience with C#, Python, or JavaScript is helpful but not required—no prior AI knowledge needed. And while this isn’t a data & analytics-focused session, data scientists, data stewards, and tech-savvy data protection officers will also find it super valuable. Description: MCP is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications. Just as USB-C gives you a universal way to connect devices to different peripherals and accessories, MCP gives AI models a standardized way to connect to data sources and tools. Why MCP?MCP makes it easier to build agents and complex workflows on top of LLMs. Since LLMs often need to integrate with data and tools, MCP provides:

• A growing list of pre-built integrations your LLM can plug into directly
• The flexibility to switch between LLM providers and vendors
• Best practices for keeping your data secure within your infrastructure

In this half-day, hands-on virtual workshop, Microsoft AI and Business Applications MVP and Microsoft Certified Trainer Prashant G Bhoyar will show you how to use MCP with Azure AI Foundry and Copilot Studio to build powerful AI Agents. Here’s what we’ll cover in detail:

• What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?
• How to build an MCP server?
• How to integrate AI applications and agents into Azure AI Foundry and Microsoft Copilot Studio using MCP?
• How does MCP connect directly to existing knowledge servers and APIs, so actions and knowledge can be automatically added and updated within your agents?
• How MCP integration simplifies agent building, reduces maintenance, and leverages enterprise-grade security and governance (like Virtual Network integration, Data Loss Prevention policies, and multiple authentication methods)?
• Best practices for real-world use cases

By the end of this bootcamp, you'll be ready to use MCP to create enterprise-grade agents. The labs will feature a mix of Python, C#, and low-code/no-code UI tools—so even if you don't want to write code, you're covered. Workshop Resources: You’ll get access to Microsoft Copilot, Azure, and Azure OpenAI services (a $500 value) for the hands-on labs. If you already have your own Microsoft Copilot or Azure subscription, you can use that instead. Attendee Workstation Requirements Bring your own computer (Windows or Mac) with:
