In a recent Executive Spotlight interview, ExecutiveBiz spoke with Wes Anderson, vice president of defense at Microsoft, to discuss the Department of Defense and industry being “inextricably linked” and the company’s partnership with DOD for over four decades now. The Q&A also focused on Microsoft’s recent growth initiatives and investments as well as its core values and culture.
Here’s an excerpt from the interview with Anderson:
“The major technological changes are not only happening on earth; the transformation is extending into space as well. With a record $15B in private investment in space last year, there are new satellite constellations and technologies that can further empower the federal government.
Microsoft recognized this strategic shift and made a significant investment in establishing Azure Space to bring cloud computing and space technologies together with a partner ecosystem to better serve Federal customers. Our approach enables ubiquitous and resilient connectivity tied to compute and analytics that facilitate new insights and rapid decision-making.”
