Microsoft Teams is introducing a new co-organizer role for meetings. The role allows people to share the workload involved in managing complex meetings, like webinars. The role is optional and likely to be used in a small minority of Teams meetings. Even so, it’s a useful feature to have available when you’re planning a large and complex meeting.

@rcdp_ The feature has not yet launched in General Availability. It's listed on the Microsoft Roadmap (Feature ID 81391) as "In development." That's why you don't see it yet.

The GA for this option was moved from March '22 to May '22. As May is almost over, does anyone know when this will become available for everyone? It's a much needed option!

@AshleyVanDM An updated rollout timeline was announced in a post (MC292796) in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center's Message Center, yesterday, May 26th. The date hasn't been updated in the Microsoft Roadmap item (81391) yet, which isn't surprising since Microsoft is horrible about keeping information consistent and up to date in the Roadmap.
From the Message Center post:
"When this will happen: We expect this feature to begin rolling out in late May (previously mid-May) and expect the rollout to be complete by mid-June (previously late May)."

I already seen that it's been rolled out.
but the co-organizer option only appear for the new meeting, the old meetings (which set recurring) dont have the option.
i thought the role co-organizer can have the privilege to change the schedule of the meeting (when the original organizer unable to change/left the company or else..)

@rcdp_ Thanks for flagging the issue with recurring meetings - that is something to keep in mind!
Unfortunately the Co-organizer role doesn't include the ability to edit the meeting - such as change time and date - which is sooooo disappointing as this is the most critical function that we need.
Co-organizers can:

Currently it is only possible to add a co-moderator after the appointment has bee created.
Is there no possibility to create the co-moderator directly in the outlook calendar (or teams calendar) during the appointment creation?
That would be a great new feature...
thanks

@Tony Redmond Agreeing with all of the previous replies. Our key issue is the inability to change the owner or organizer of meetings. We like to setup indefinite Teams meetings for long term projects so everyone knows the meeting link and can jump on any time. The problem is when the originator leaves it forces us to recreate all of these meetings and send out new invitations and meeting links. This also means the previous chatter history and attachments is lost. We desperately need the ability to maintain continuity by keeping the meetings as-is and changing the owner to a new person. Or, if a Co-organizer had 100% of the functionality of the owner/organizer that would probably work.
