Microsoft Licensing: What’s Changed and What It Means for You

Microsoft licensing can look straightforward on the surface, but recent changes, new bundles and the rapid rise of AI have made it harder to stay confident in your decisions.

Join our Licensing Specialist, Chloe Chapman, for a practical Ctrl Alt Innovate session focused on understanding the latest Microsoft licensing updates and how they apply in the real world. This webinar is designed to help you cut through complexity, avoid common pitfalls and make better licensing decisions for your organisation.

Chloe will focus on what customers are actually dealing with today, the challenges we see most often, and how licensing conversations are changing as Copilot and AI become part of everyday use.

What we’ll cover:

• A practical breakdown of recent Microsoft licensing updates
  An overview of the latest changes across Microsoft licensing and what they mean in practice. We’ll look at how these updates affect cost, flexibility and compliance, and where organisations are most likely to get caught out.
• Real‑world insight from our in‑house licensing expert
  Chloe will share what she’s seeing across the market, including common customer challenges, misconceptions and trends. This session reflects real conversations happening with organisations right now, not idealised scenarios.
• How AI and Copilot are reshaping licensing conversations
  AI is changing how organisations consume Microsoft services. Learn how Copilot and AI capabilities fit into existing licensing models, what to consider before enabling them, and how to approach licensing as usage and value expectations shift.

This session is ideal for IT leaders, procurement teams, finance stakeholders and anyone responsible for managing or influencing Microsoft licensing decisions. If you want clearer answers, fewer surprises and more confidence in your licensing strategy, this webinar is for you.
