• Making Microsoft Teams Great on Mac, iPad and iPhone with Microsoft Engineering

  Hari Krishna Reddy Juturu, Partner Group Engineering Manager, and Avinash Prasad, Partner Director of Engineering, both at Microsoft, talk through the importance of the Apple Platforms, user experience and new features.How the team “sim‑ships” features across platforms while embracing earned, Mac‑native integrations like Menu Bar Extras, AirPods support, and native screen sharing.Why day‑zero readiness for new macOS releases matters, and how close collaboration with Apple plus early beta testing protects reliability and performance.The update stance: older Teams clients are actively blocked after three versions, with visibility and remediation via the Teams Client Health dashboard for IT admins.Advances on iPad including dedicated multi‑window for chats and channels, external monitor support, and keyboard workflows.CarPlay improvements for safer commutes: hands‑free replies, notifications that respect system focus modes, and a continued push toward voice‑first experiences as the platform evolves.Thanks to Crestron, this episode’s sponsor, for their continued support of Empowering.Cloud.

• The Future of Meeting Rooms — with Tormod Ree, Chief Product and Engineering Officer at Neat

  In this episode, Tormod Ree, Chief Product and Engineering Officer at Neat, shares his view on where meeting room technology is heading and how Neat plans to differentiate while staying simple and reliable for customers.AI across the experience: device-side media understanding, and platform features will move meetings from basic framing to experiences that adapt to the interaction in the room.Hybrid work isn’t solved: organisations still struggle to give remote participants equal presence for video, audio and collaboration. Rooms must support more than a “video window” and enable local, collaborative and mixed scenarios.Neat’s approach to scale: multi‑device architecture for larger and more complex spaces, companion devices like Neat Center, and an App Hub to use devices for more than meetings.Platform alignment without losing identity and partnership on Microsoft’s Devices Ecosystem Platform to improve quality, provisioning and integrations, while retaining Neat’s own innovations and simplicity focus.Thanks to Neat, this episode’s sponsor, for their continued support of Empowering.Cloud.
