It’s clear to me that the LinkedIn team has grown a fantastic business and an impressive network of more than 433 million professionals. I have been learning about LinkedIn for some time while also reflecting on how networks can truly differentiate cloud services. This deal brings together the world’s leading professional cloud with the world’s leading professional network. You can see how Jeff Weiner, the CEO of LinkedIn, and I envision the opportunity ahead in this public presentation. I’m excited to share that today Microsoft announced a deal to acquire LinkedIn. Here’s what Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner are telling their respective staffs about the deal. The reasons aren’t entirely clear aside from the fact that LinkedIn owns the best professional social database, and Microsoft still runs some of the most widely used office software. Microsoft is buying LinkedIn for $26.2 billion.
