Today, Microsoft announced the next wave of enterprise AI advancements for Microsoft 365 Copilot – supporting “frontier transformation”. Frontier Transformation is a holistic reimagining of business, aligning AI with human ambition to achieve an organization’s highest aspirations. It is the next evolution of AI Transformation.
Catrin Hinkel, CEO, Microsoft Switzerland, says: “Swiss organizations are moving beyond AI experimentation and are increasingly focused on solutions that deliver real, measurable value in everyday work. With the next wave of Microsoft 365 Copilot and the introduction of enterprise-grade agent capabilities, we are helping companies embed intelligence directly into the tools their people already use—while maintaining the highest standards of security, privacy, and trust. This combination of intelligence and trust is critical for Swiss businesses to responsibly accelerate AI adoption and turn innovation into sustainable, long-term growth.”
