According to an article by Interface News, in response to recent rumors about Microsoft’s plan to close its Asia Research Institute, Peter Lee, the senior vice president and head of Microsoft Research, has responded. He stated that there are currently no discussions or proposals for closing the Microsoft Asia Research Institute.
“We continue to support the Microsoft Asia Research Institute and its world-class research work, and we look forward to future research plans,” Lee said in a statement. This news has somewhat clarified the rumors circulating recently about Microsoft possibly closing its Asia Research Institute.
Previously, there have been reports that Microsoft Asia Research Institute has started seeking visas to transfer top artificial intelligence experts from Beijing to its research institute in Vancouver, which could affect 20 to 40 employees. In response to this rumor, Microsoft immediately said: “This is not True.”
Established in 1998, the Microsoft Asia Research Institute is one of the research institutions established by Microsoft in the Asia-Pacific region. It is also one of only two basic research institutions in Asia, the other being Microsoft’s Indian Research Institute. Through the collaboration of experts and scholars from different disciplines and backgrounds around the world, the Microsoft Asia Research Institute has become a world-class computer basic and applied research institution.
