Nested O365 Groups are in the works
Looks like Microsoft is looking for Feedback on Nested Office 365 Groups, see this Ignite Session: https://youtu.be/mfox9-L5Xt0?list=WL&t=3815

Maybe there will be some news at Ignite, though I'm unsure.
I understand the wish of nested group, I'm unconvinced of the possible implementation of if, without confusing at lot of users. Also there is the technical aspect.
The current approach where everyone in a group can glance the current members and know they all have access to these resources makes it very easy to understand.

Hi Ivan54,
I just learned that this feature is available in Azure Portal (see picture below). However it is not working despite returning a success notification.

Yes that module is available in Azure AD, though I'm pretty sure does not apply to Office 365 Groups, but to standard security groups in Azure AD.
Go ahead and try it out. You can select to add one O365 Group to another, and the Azure UI will even tell you it was successful, but when you check back later, the group just won't be in the members.

Yup, Azure Portal is just misleading the user with its success message.

We do not support nesting and don't have any timing to share at this stage.
