The NFL Huddles with Microsoft Teams to Digitize Collaboration for Game Day
Everyone knows that teamwork is vital in the National Football League (NFL)—on the field and off. The arrival of COVID-19, however, pushed the league to reimagine how to collaborate behind the scenes.

In exchange for the traditional high-touch, in-person communication culture at league offices, the organization adopted a virtual home field.

Newcastle University challenges tradition with connected, collaborative culture

.NET Core invests in consistency to accelerate open-source innovation
Microsoft partnering with the open-source community to collaborate on .NET Core proved a valuable learning opportunity for large-scale retooling of its development processes.

The result: Developers can now move between repos without the need to learn a new CI system each time, and tests are more efficiently run which means iterations—and by extension, innovation—is quicker.
