After nearly 20 years of working at Microsoft, Panay decided to leave Microsoft. Panos has an incredible impact on our products and culture as well as on the broader equipment ecosystem. Under the leadership of Panos, the team created popular products and the iconic Surface brand. Recently, as head of Windows, the team has brought amazing services and experiences to hundreds of millions of users, and Windows 11 runs on innovative devices, including our OEM partners. He will be missed by us, and I personally thank him very much for his many contributions over the years. Please join me in blessing him.

Looking to the future, we will redouble our efforts to realize our strategy. These changes will take effect immediately and will be transitioned with the help of Panos.

Build chips, systems, and devices across Windows, clients, and clouds for the AI world. The team will be led by Pavan Davuluri, who will report directly to me. Brett Ostrum, Nino Storniolo, Linda Averett, Ken Pan, Ralf Groene, Aidan Marcuss, Carlos Picoto, Stevie Bathiche, Robin Seiler, Ruben Caballero and Anuj Gosalia will report to Pavan with their team. Windows planning and release management will continue to be the responsibility of this team. Our commitment to Surface and MR remains unchanged.

Build an experience that combines Web, services, and Windows for the AI world. To this end, Shilpa Ranganathan, Jeff Johnson, and Ali Akgun will report directly to Mikhail Parakhin and form a new Windows and Web experience team, and keep their teams unchanged.

Yusuf Mehdi will be responsible for leading the Windows and Surface business together with our OEM and retail partners.

In addition, Charles Simonyi, Terri Chudzik and Erin Kolb will join the eBay management team, and Ralf Groene and Mike Davidson will work together for the best coordination of the design team.

We will arrange a question and answer session in the next few days to answer relevant questions. Let's continue to focus on the implementation of our existing plan. Thank you for all you have done and your influence on our customers and partners.

Good luck.

Rajesh
