WARSAW, Poland: Microsoft has announced a major new investment of $700 million in Poland to strengthen the country's cybersecurity and expand its collaboration with the Polish armed forces.
Speaking at a joint press conference with Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, Microsoft President Brad Smith said the investment marks the second phase of the company's commitment to Poland, following a $1 billion data center project first announced in 2020.
