Microsoft is gearing up to announce the “next phase of Copilot” on September 16, 2024, in an event hosted by CEO Satya Nadella and Vice President of AI at Work, Jared Spataro, on LinkedIn. This significant update is expected to introduce new features for both business and consumer subscriptions, along with a rebranding of Copilot.
Next phase of Copilot event details
The “next phase of Copilot” event, scheduled for September 16, 2024, will focus on the commercial aspects of Microsoft’s Copilot services. It will be broadcast via LinkedIn, starting at 11:00 AM ET (8:30 PM IST). The gathering aims to unveil the next stage of advancements in Copilot, a generative artificial intelligence chatbot developed by Microsoft.
Rebranding Copilot strategy and new features for business subscriptions
As part of the event, Microsoft plans to rebrand Copilot, changing “Copilot in Word” to “Microsoft 365 Copilot in Word” and “Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365” to “Microsoft 365 Copilot.” This rebranding is part of Microsoft’s strategy to unify the Copilot branding across its various chatbot products.
The event is expected to introduce several new Copilot facilities for Microsoft 365, aimed at enticing more businesses to subscribe at a rate of $30 per user per month. These features will enhance the productivity and efficiency of businesses using Microsoft 365.
Additionally, the event might announce new features for Copilot Pro, Microsoft’s consumer subscription service for its AI offerings. Priced at $20 per month, Copilot Pro offers similar features to the business-focused subscription in Word but has not seen many new additions since its launch earlier this year.
