Samsung will soon announce a partnership with Microsoft where the Korean giant will bundle Office 365 productivity suite with their Knox enterprise workspace. Samsung’s Dr Injong Rhee while speaking at the Samsung’s Enterprise Mobility Showcase, part of Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, said the company announce the deal next week or so.

Rhee said,

Today I’m going to tell you about additional productivity applications from Microsoft. We have a deal with Microsoft which will be announced in a week or so, we’ll have a big announcement, so you have a sneak preview. We’ll have Microsoft OneDrive, and OneNote, and Office 365 come with Knox Workspace. When you download Knox Workspace, this comes pre-loaded.

The deal would definitely boost Microsoft’s presence in the enterprise world. Ever since Satya Nadella took the charge of the company, we’ve seen the software giant take the “mobile first, cloud first” approach, and this is yet another step towards it.
