Meta (the company formerly known as Facebook) is not the only one trying to carve out a position for itself as a metaverse-savvy company. Microsoft is in this space, too -- coming at it from a more enterprise-centric perspective. At the Microsoft Ignite IT pro conference this week, officials are beating the metaverse drum by announcing more details around Microsoft's plans to bring Mesh to its Teams collaboration platform.
At its Build developers conference in May, Microsoft introduced its Mesh mixed-reality collaboration platform powered by Azure. At that time, officials said Microsoft would be bringing Mesh to Teams. Today, Microsoft officials said Mesh for Teams will begin rolling out in preview in 2022 with a set of pre-built immersive spaces for things like meetings and social mixers. Over time, Microsoft will add tools to allow customers to build their own custom spaces.
Microsoft is describing Mesh for Teams as a feature of Teams that will "combine the mixed-reality capabilities of Microsoft Mesh, which allows people in different physical locations to join collaborative and shared holographic experiences, with the productivity tools of Teams, where people can join virtual meetings, send chats, collaborate on shared documents, and more."
