Microsoft Teams Live Events
Microsoft Teams live events is a webinar tool for broadcast-type sessions where there are larger number of participants and which require less interaction (especially for audio & video) between the host and the participants, who are mostly viewing the session.
Large live streaming events typically have several people working behind the scenes—the event group—to make them successful. As such, Microsoft Teams Live events requires at minimum the Producer and Presenter role and they must be two separate Western ids. See Event Group Roles for further details.
