Microsoft Teams for Live Events

You can use Teams to schedule and deliver live events for large audiences, such as webinars, lives, etc.

Microsoft Teams offer the Teams live events as an extension of Teams meetings. You can use it to produce events for large audiences with more control over video, audience interaction, and reporting.
