À propos de cet audio
Microsoft has been delivering major announcements and strategic moves over the past few days as we close out 2025. According to Microsoft's official support documentation, the company is adjusting its update schedule due to holiday operations, confirming that no non-security preview updates will release in December, though regular security updates continue as scheduled with normal servicing resuming in January 2026.
The biggest headline dominating Microsoft's recent activity is the launch of Microsoft 365 Copilot Business, which became available worldwide on December 1st. This represents a significant strategic push into the small and medium business market. The new offering bundles Copilot capabilities with existing Microsoft 365 Business plans at SMB-friendly pricing, requiring fewer than 300 users. According to Microsoft's official announcement, this product delivers enterprise-grade AI through Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams, with features like Copilot Chat, Search, Pages, Notebooks, and customizable agents included at no additional cost.
Partners are seeing aggressive promotional support for this launch. According to the Pax8 monthly update from Microsoft, there's a fifteen percent discount running from December 1st through March 31st 2026, with even deeper discounts on certain bundles reaching up to thirty-five percent off MSRP. The company is also pushing upgrade paths available starting December 17th to help existing customers transition into these new offerings during peak renewal season.
Microsoft is holding multiple high-profile events this week. The company is hosting Tech Community Live Windows Edition on December 2nd with back-to-back Ask Microsoft Anything sessions covering Windows update management and AI agents in Windows. The Convergence 2025 conference kicks off December 9th, focusing on AI and ERP transformation with dedicated sessions on Copilot implementation and enterprise scenarios running through December 12th. Microsoft is also participating in ESPC 2025 in Dublin from December 1st through 4th.
On the partnership front, Microsoft is emphasizing channel support with updated CSP requirements taking effect January 1st and new incentive structures providing a seven point five percent growth accelerator on hero solutions including Business Premium, E3, E5, Copilot, Business Applications, and Azure. The company continues promoting its agent store in private preview while positioning partners as managed intelligence providers in the broader AI ecosystem push.
