Support GUM365 and invest in a community that shares.
Our partners help make accessible, recurring and useful events possible for Microsoft 365 and AI professionals in Montréal and Québec.
A season, not just a logo on one event.
GUM365 favours lasting relationships with its partners. Founding partners support the complete season and accompany the community across three M365 Community Days. AI Community Days also offer event-specific partnership levels.
Quarterly M365 Community Days do not offer one-off event sponsorships. Partner presence at these gatherings is reserved for the season’s founding partners.
Community impact
What your support makes possible
GUM365 is committed to keeping community gatherings accessible. Partner support funds the practical elements that turn a good idea into a professional and sustainable experience.
Keep in-person events accessible
Hospitality, logistics, signage, breaks, lunch or SharePint and the practical details that make an event run smoothly without creating a financial barrier for attendees.
Improve event quality
Recording, visuals, equipment and on-site experience so speakers and volunteers can focus on content and conversations.
Keep the community active all year
Communication, community tools, digital presence and the capacity to organize recurring gatherings rather than isolated events.
Partnership levels

Partnership does not dictate the content
GUM365 remains an independent community. A partnership supports the event and the community, but does not guarantee an editorial session. Content proposals continue to be evaluated on relevance and value for attendees.
Let’s build the next season together.
