We applaud the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework released today by the @EU_Commission & US, which is a step in rebuilding & strengthening global data protections. Read more about this milestone & the measures we're taking to further protect customers: blogs.microsoft.com/eupolicy…
I’m inspired by the ways customers in Western Europe are quickly adopting the Microsoft Cloud. They’re re-imagining the way they do business in a time where resilience is crucial for success.

Wine growers are facing a new threat: late-season frost intensified by climate change. Our partner @TietoEVRY is using sensors to record temperature, humidity and topography. We're excited about the positive impact this pilot could have.

We're thrilled to announce our intent to expand our cloud services in Europe by establishing a datacenter region in Belgium, giving Belgian organizations local data residency and faster access to the cloud, with advanced data security.

Excited to announce that Spain will be home to our newest global Microsoft R&D hub. This will be one of 8 research centers that Microsoft WebXT (Web Experiences Team) has worldwide, and will specialize in AI tech to improve user experiences.

So pleased to see financial services firms here in Europe playing an active role in global sustainability. @Rabobank and Italy’s Flowe recognize that climate change is increasingly impacting agriculture, and are using tech to produce impactful solutions.

Proud that @Microsoft is an investor in @Climeworks. As @lucasjoppa says here, "There's no credible economic model that shows the world achieving a net-zero carbon economy by 2050 without carbon removal playing a significant role in that equation."

In our latest Work Trend Index, we share trends we’re seeing in our own employee surveys. Some @Microsoft employees find work-life-balance by working from home, others by going into the office. It’s a strong case for #hybridwork.

#microsoftlife
Companies around the world, including here in Europe, are thinking about how and when they can bring employees back to the office safely, and how to keep remote workers engaged in an inclusive way.

I was proud to see so many customers from here in Western Europe mentioned during our Q4 earnings call, including @abinbev, @ABNAMRO, @LaLigaEN, @Maersk, @SwissRe & @Nestle. We’re only successful when these customers, and all of our customers across the region, are successful.

Exciting news today: @MSFTResearch will open a new research lab in Amsterdam, which will be led by @wellingmax, one of the world’s leading researchers in computer science and machine learning. I look forward to seeing what Dr. Welling and team discover.

I was delighted to see Belgium’s @abinbev featured in @judsonalthoff's #MSInspire keynote. Their work to empower small companies at the end of the supply chain, with tech that otherwise would be limited to large enterprises, has never been more important.

I recently made my 9th and final virtual country visit of the fiscal year, to Italy! One of my key takeaways: while virtual won't ever fully replace the real thing, tech is truly an enabler. I met more customers + partners than I would've if I’d made these trips in person.
And I managed to “travel” roughly 9,200 kms without emitting carbon, something I’m definitely going to keep in mind for the future. A big thanks to my team who made this beautiful compilation of all nine flights I made this past year using @MSFSofficial. Enjoy!
