We are certainly living in uncharted times. The impacts of COVID-19 are being felt around the world as individuals, families, and businesses are adjusting to their new normal. There is so much uncertainty in these challenging times: most notably when and if life can return close to the way we knew it. What we’re navigating today is really challenging our ability to be agile, creative, and resilient in our professional and personal lives.

 

I am so proud of how Microsoft has responded to help the global communities we are part of and serve: making a version of Teams and Office 365 widely available for free to educational institutions and leveraging our supply chains to provide supplies for medical staff and deliver meals to those in need.

 

Our partner community makes me equally proud, as so many quickly adjusted to address the new challenges placed upon us. We are seeing such incredible transformation from long-standing partners, while also witnessing the rapid creation of new organizations and innovation designed to help our global citizens. I am inspired by all the creativity, tenacity, and community service our partners are demonstrating to help businesses and individuals navigate today’s realities.

 

To make sure our customers can easily discover solutions that can help them address challenges faced by this pandemic, we have dedicated our Azure Marketplace and Microsoft AppSource featured spots to COVID-19 related offers. Below are some solutions we’re showcasing today, with more to come. We’ve also compiled a running list of promotions and discounts provided by partners intended to help others. These offers might not be directly COVID-19 related, but we hope they can help support businesses in need during this difficult time.

What we highlight below is just the beginning. As our partners continue to innovate and deliver solutions that help, we will continue to update our commercial marketplace homepages. Stayed tuned for the latest offers.

 

SOLUTIONS SPECIFIC TO COVID-19

 

Artisight.png COVID-19 ICU Expansion

This intelligent camera system from Artisight Inc. (doing business as Whiteboard Coordinator Inc.) increases critical care capacity and reduces worker exposure to COVID-19. In the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals face unprecedented capacity issues that threaten to undermine healthcare delivery for all patients. Further, the expansion of bed capacity into traditionally non-clinical areas like office space and field hospitals makes standard isolation precautions, such as negative-pressure rooms, nearly impossible. There is an urgent need to enhance capacity and protect front-line healthcare workers with a cost-effective and scalable remote patient monitoring system.
