Partnerships

We Work With Organizations Around the World

Partnership is at the heart of Microsoft's business model. The success of our products and services relies on an ecosystem of nearly 700,000 business partners-many of them small and medium sized enterprises that are deeply rooted in their local communities.

We also partner with a diverse array of government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and inter-governmental organizations. These partners guide how we use technology to address societal needs and help us deploy software to benefit the millions of people they serve.
