Microsoft announced earlier this year the launch of a new United Nations representation office to deepen their support for the UN's mission and work. Many of the big challenges facing society can only be addressed effectively through multi-stakeholder action.

Microsoft provided an update on their mission, activities for the 75th UN General Assembly, and the team.
