Helping customers innovate with cloud and AI

🥳 Thrilled to see this project becoming real! Together with a very small team, I started working on this a couple of years ago, in response to strong demand from #Luxembourg customers in public and regulated sectors. 🏗️ Together with my colleagues at Microsoft Corp, and through our partnership with DEEP/Post Luxembourg, we evolved the business case into reality! 💡 With this initiative we'll bring our #cloud and #AI capabilities to Luxembourg soil in a secure way with local data residency and low latency, paving the way for rapid innovation for our Luxembourg customers! Opening in 2026! 👏 A big thanks to everyone involved! These massive investment projects require hard work and strong commitment! #Azure Sebastien Respaut, Clara Maldonado, Ludovic Gilles, Luc HALBARDIER, Nicolas Etienne, Anupam Pandey, Dahlia Canter, Loutfi Belghmidi, Tiziano Cristian Durante, and many more!

🌐 Cloud expansion in Luxembourg: A big step towards digital transformation 🇱🇺 At Microsoft BeLux, we are excited to announce a significant step forward in our commitment to drive innovation and support digital transformation in Luxembourg. Early 2026, we will launch expanded cloud solutions in the country. This not only brings cutting-edge cloud solutions closer to Luxembourgish businesses but also aligns with the national strategy for digitalization, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity. Microsoft has been actively supporting the Luxembourgish economy and businesses for over 20 years, and this new milestone reinforces our long-term commitment to the country. Key benefits of this initiative include: ✅ Data sovereignty: Local data storage compliant with the highest privacy standards. ✅ Enhanced performance: Low latency, faster access to data, and reduced costs. ✅ Tailored solutions: Flexible cloud services for all businesses, from SMEs to large enterprises. As part of this exciting journey, our General Manager, Marijke Schroos, had the honor of sitting down with Lex Delles, Luxembourg's Minister of the Economy, to discuss how this collaboration will empower businesses, strengthen the economy, and accelerate innovation. Together, they explored the critical role of cloud and AI in fostering competitiveness and productivity, while also addressing the unique needs of local companies. 🚀 We are proud to partner with the Luxembourg government and local businesses, such as DEEP by POST Luxembourg, on this journey. Check out the interview with their Director, Ludovic Gilles in the video below!✨ ▶️http://msft.it/6041onKfS #MicrosoftBeLux #DigitalTransformation #Luxembourg #Innovation #CloudComputing #AI
