Microsoft announced a new set of governance measures to strengthen its partnership with India's public sector and critical infrastructure domains. This initiative builds on a previous $3 billion investment commitment. The announcement includes the formation of a Microsoft Public Sector and Critical Infrastructure Customer Council, which will be chaired by Puneet Chandok, the President of Microsoft India & South Asia. The council aims to foster dialogue on technology policy and contractual frameworks to ensure service continuity and digital stability for key sectors like healthcare, energy, telecommunications, and financial services, particularly in the face of increasing cybersecurity threats.
