Hoo Kai Sheng Unlike the majority of the speakers in this list, Kai Sheng is not an MVP.

About a few years back, he has found refuge in K2 – an organization that specializes in workflow technologies on the Microsoft platform and never looked back since. Whenever he is not lazing around, Kai Sheng prefers to share only practical experiences on both SharePoint and K2 technologies with technical and business folks alike.
