2026 IT Forecast: Cloudy with a Chance of Price Increases

2026 is coming in hot—and not necessarily in a good way for IT. Between rising (infrastructure) costs and major Microsoft 365 licensing changes, things are shifting fast. The question isn’t if this will impact your organization—it’s how prepared you’ll be when it does.

This session is all about helping you stay one step ahead (and maybe save yourself a few budget headaches along the way). We’ll break down what’s changing, why it actually matters, and what smart, proactive moves you can make now—so you’re not stuck reacting later when costs spike or renewals hit.

Here’s what we’ll dig into:

  • State of the IT market – what’s really going on behind the scenes (and why prices keep creeping up)
  • Challenges (including real examples of price increases) – where organizations are feeling the squeeze the most
  • M365 Changes – what’s coming, what it means, and what to keep an eye on
  • Budgeting Strategies – practical ways to plan ahead, stay flexible, and avoid surprise
  • Q&A

Whether you’re deep in the weeds of IT, helping manage budgets, or just trying to make sense of all the changes coming your way, this session is designed to give you clarity—not more confusion. If you’ve ever been caught off guard by a price increase or found yourself piecing together what a licensing change actually means, you’re not alone—and this is for you.

Why you should attend:

  • Get a clearer picture of what’s coming in 2026—and what it means for your organization
  • Understand where and why costs are rising (before they show up in your next invoice)
  • Learn how to approach Microsoft 365 changes with confidence instead of guesswork
  • Walk away with practical budgeting strategies you can actually use

Bottom line: less reacting, more planning—and a lot fewer “how did this happen?” moments. After all, we’re all in this together.
