This month is all about Teams Premium. We had a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/2023\/02\/01\/microsoft-teams-premium-cut-costs-and-add-ai-powered-productivity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">big announcement earlier this month<\/a> that highlighted the new features and use cases in Teams Premium. What I am most excited about are the new AI features being built into Teams and to see AI being deployed in a useful way for everyday knowledge workers. New AI features such as Intelligent Recap allow all of us to be more productive and focus on tasks that matter. Rather than taking meticulous notes or recalling key moments from meetings, Intelligent Recap will do that work for us while we focus on other tasks and connections. I will not go through every feature detail here, but feel free to scroll through and learn about all the new Teams Premium capabilities hitting the market.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Teams Premium, several other great updates have been released. My personal favorite is Suggested Files in Chats. This is another example of AI being integrated into Teams to help you stay in the flow of work by automatically finding documents you wish to share with colleagues. Please read about all the updates and let me know your thoughts! I\u2019ll do my best to respond and answer questions as they come up.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Premium<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\" padding-left : 30px; \"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/#intelligent\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">More Intelligent<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\" padding-left : 30px; \"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/#personalized\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">More Personalized<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\" padding-left : 30px; \"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/#protected\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">More Protected<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Non-Teams Premium announcements<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\" padding-left : 30px; \"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/#meetings\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Meetings<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\" padding-left : 30px; \"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/#appointments\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Virtual Appointments\u2014basic functionality<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\" padding-left : 30px; \"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/#calling\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Calling<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\" padding-left : 30px; \"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/#collab\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Chat and collaboration<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\" padding-left : 30px; \"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/#education\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Teams for Education<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\" padding-left : 30px; \"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/#manage\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Management<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"toc-hId-535082577\"><span id=\"teams-premium\"><strong>Teams Premium<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Microsoft Teams Premium<\/strong><br \/>Microsoft Teams Premium launched this month, providing a better way to meet.

Anyone can turn on live captions in Teams and see real-time captions in the spoken language. But if meeting participants speak different languages, organizations often spend thousands of dollars for additional real-time meeting translation services. With <strong>live translations for captions in meetings<\/strong>, now available in Teams Premium, you get AI-powered real-time translations in 40 spoken languages. By default, regular closed captions are displayed in the language that\u2019s spoken during the meeting. Live translated captions allow you to see captions translated from the spoken language into the language you\u2019re most comfortable with, saving money and making meetings more productive and effortless. Only the meeting organizer needs to have Teams Premium for all meeting attendees to enjoy live translations for captions in meetings.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline\" image-alt=\"Help reduce language barriers during meetings with live translation for captions.\" style=\"width: 999px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/t5\/image\/serverpage\/image-id\/446328iA9378FD56B54F534\/image-size\/large?v=v2&amp;px=999\" role=\"button\" title=\"Live Translations of Captions.gif\" alt=\"Help reduce language barriers during meetings with live translation for captions.\"><span class=\"lia-inline-image-caption\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();\">Help reduce language barriers during meetings with live translation for captions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"personalized\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"toc-hId-1215140947\"><span id=\"more-personalized\"><strong>More personalized<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Meeting templates<\/strong><br \/>Meetings are not \u201cone size fits all.\u201d Traditionally, when you schedule an online meeting, you just use the default settings because drilling into meeting options takes valuable time out of your day.

Assigning meetings, messaging, and app policies individually can be a complex task. But with <strong>custom user policy packages<\/strong> now available, IT can save time by creating a customized bundle of policies for users with similar roles in the organization.

Microsoft 365 E5 customers with Teams Premium can now enable Microsoft Purview Information Protection <strong>sensitivity labels for Teams<\/strong> meetings. Meeting organizers can leverage sensitivity labels to automatically apply the most relevant and important meeting options based on the sensitivity of meeting content. Compliance admins can configure this integration with Teams meetings in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal to determine which meeting options should be enforced if the label is used in a meeting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advanced webinars: Host events with seamless registration and customized experiences<\/strong><br \/>Many organizations want an end-to-end solution to host various types of virtual events\u2014whether those events are customer-facing webinars to grow business or online organization-wide trainings\u2014that offer personalized touches for presenters and attendees alike.

Enabling the waitlist will keep webinar registration open even after the event has reached the capacity set by the organizer. This allows additional people to register and be automatically added to the list. As new spots open up, people will be automatically moved to the pending approval state, which enables the organizer to review their registration information and manually approve or reject each of the registrants.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline\" image-alt=\"Manage registration by enabling the waitlist to manage event capacity and manual approval to view registrant information.\" style=\"width: 999px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/t5\/image\/serverpage\/image-id\/446340i5699A07893E173CD\/image-size\/large?v=v2&amp;px=999\" role=\"button\" title=\"Registration Wait List.png\" alt=\"Manage registration by enabling the waitlist to manage event capacity and manual approval to view registrant information.\"><span class=\"lia-inline-image-caption\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();\">Manage registration by enabling the waitlist to manage event capacity and manual approval to view registrant information.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Customize registration start and end times<\/strong> <br \/>Webinar hosts also have the ability to <strong>customize registration start and end times<\/strong> to specify when you want registration to start and end, making it easier to plan for and manage your event.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Virtual green room<\/strong> <br \/>Webinars allow presenters to join the <strong>virtual green room<\/strong> so that preparation before the webinar is seamless.
