Twenty years ago, Microsoft broke ground on our first data center in Quincy, Washington. At a time when so many small towns have been shrinking, Quincy has grown, and the partnership behind that story is one worth telling. Watch how a farm town in Central Washington helped build the cloud, and built a thriving future of its own. https://lnkd.in/ePjWhyQu

Built through a strong public-private partnership, including Microsoft and Boeing’s early leadership, WSOS combines scholarships, mentorship, and career pathways to become an engine for economic mobility for more than 12,500 Washington students.

A lot of organizations already have access to customer insight. The harder problem is turning that insight into everyday marketing decisions. Our Microsoft Marketing Research + Insights team started addressing that with an internal AI Messaging Assistant built on Microsoft Foundry, grounded in customer research and real-world signals. For our marketing teams, it changes how messaging gets developed and refined. Instead of relying primarily on instinct or long feedback cycles, teams can pressure-test ideas in minutes across different audiences before anything goes to market. That shift reduces friction, shortens feedback loops, and brings customer intelligence into the process much earlier. It also changes where teams spend time, with more focus on work that improves outcomes. We’re already seeing measurable impact, including 90% faster messaging cycles and ~$10M in value. This isn’t a one-off internal experiment. It’s an example of how organizations can use the Microsoft AI stack to build domain-specific systems grounded in their own data, workflows, and expertise. This is part of becoming a Frontier Marketing organization. Not building solutions in isolation but applying them in real scenarios and learning from how the work changes. We’ve been focused on capturing those learnings and sharing them more broadly across the organization. This is one example of that in practice: https://lnkd.in/gMMtJMGw

Have you ever noticed how some of our strongest memories are connected to food? For Jack Goldburg, founder of Jack’s Dining Room and Yes Chef Group, food isn’t just about what’s served. It’s about how people connect with one another and experience something lasting. In this episode of Creator Mode, Jack and I talked about how his love of food grew into something larger. He approaches creativity with a clear priority: the story behind the dish matters as much as the dish itself. That's also why he's intentional about using AI, embracing it when it adds efficiency while protecting the unmistakably human moments that people value most. What has stayed with me since this conversation with Jack is how transferable that mindset is. When work is designed with care for people, connection is built into the experience from the start. Great perspective from Jack on balancing technology with real human connection.
