  • Enable privacy-safe partnerships through software capabilities: support clean-room / API / data-collaboration scenarios by building enforceable product controls (access, usage constraints, verification, auditing) rather than manual process
  • Drive cross-org adoption and execution: align stakeholders across Ads, Bing, Copilot, Xbox, LinkedIn, and ABK
