We want to empower our customers to implement digital initiatives faster. That’s why we’re thrilled to welcome The Marsden Group to the Microsoft family.

Through recent projects, I’ve seen firsthand what The Marsden Group and Microsoft can do, what’s possible when we bring together our cloud, edge, IoT, digital twin and AI capabilities with The Marsden Group’s speed, agility and technical creativity.

 

In our everchanging world, we see an urgent need to build agile operations and supply chains to address disruptive market forces and consumer demands. With this investment, we are taking the next step to help our customers across all industries envision and build digital solutions faster.
