Back in the Lab: DUG Tampa Meetup Group MCP Server Hackathon

Last month, DUG Tampa Group kicked off a hands-on hackathon with one goal: **build an MCP server.** Did we know exactly how? Nope… maybe… and that was the best part. We brainstormed, troubleshot, and learned in real time (including a quick Copilot Studio build using existing MCP connectors). Now it’s **Part 2**, and we’re taking the next step: **starting an MCP server from scratch.** Whether you're a Power Platform developer, Dynamics professional, AI enthusiast, or just curious about MCP servers, this is your chance to jump in, collaborate, and learn with the community. **What to expect:** • A collaborative, hands-on learning environment • Real experimentation with Power Platform and AI tools • Group brainstorming and problem solving • The chance to shape what we build next **New to the series? You’re welcome.** Jump in wherever you are, curious beginner, builder, or seasoned pro. **RSVP and come build with us.**
