Where Technology Meets Potential In the past quarter century, Microsoft has grown from small start-up to Fortune 500 success by creating innovative software, and working diligently to help customers realize their full potential. When you view our company profile, you'll see examples of the groundbreaking products and services we're developing for today's customers and learn about our commitment to exploring tomorrow's frontiers.

Building for the Future

To be in the best position to accelerate these new technologies as they emerge, we have recently reorganized our company around seven core businesses. This new structure streamlines decision making, encourages entrepreneurship throughout our company, and increases collaboration across groups.

In addition, we have embraced a new corporate mission: to enable people and businesses throughout the world to realize their full potential. Propelling this mission are the values and tenets that have served us well in the past, and that have been newly articulated to unify and inspire our people.

It's an exciting time to be at Microsoft.

One thing we've learned over our brief history is that nothing is impossible. Just as people around the world embraced our original vision of a computer on every desk and in every home, we are confident that the future will hold amazing new technologies that will further enable people and businesses around the world to realize their full potential.
