3 August 2026, 08:30 CET

ArcelorMittal today announces an expansion of its collaboration with Microsoft, accelerating the company's transformation into a data-driven, AI-enabled organization and strengthening the digital foundation that underpins its industrial competitiveness.

This latest announcement anchors ArcelorMittal's "Cloud First, Data Centric" strategy, with Microsoft Azure as the company's primary cloud computing platform. Azure will serve as the backbone for modernizing core IT systems, consolidating data into a single trusted foundation, and deploying advanced analytics and AI at scale across global systems and business processes.

ArcelorMittal will integrate Microsoft Fabric, Purview and Foundry among other Azure infrastructure services to deliver solutions that:

• Scale digital innovation, accelerating the delivery of AI-powered solutions to the business;
• Strengthen cyber security, system reliability, and resilience across the enterprise;
• Drive operational efficiency and reduce dependency on legacy IT systems.
  
  

Together, these advances will empower ArcelorMittal to turn data into a strategic asset, enabling faster, smarter decisions and sustained competitive advantage as the company advances its long-term digital transformation.

Commenting, Nik Puri, Chief Information Officer at ArcelorMittal:

"At ArcelorMittal, technology is central to how we compete, a driver of performance, innovation and lasting advantage. Our expanded relationship with Microsoft is not simply about modernizing systems; it's about fundamentally reshaping our IT operating model, embedding data and AI into the core of how we run our IT estate. Our focus is clear: efficiency at scale, faster and smarter decisions, and positioning ArcelorMittal at the forefront of digital transformation in the global steel industry."

Samer Abu-Ltaif, President, Europe, Middle East and Africa at Microsoft added:

"The most ambitious companies are moving beyond experimenting with AI to build their business around it from the ground up. ArcelorMittal is doing exactly that: not simply adding AI to existing processes but using a trusted cloud and data foundation on Azure to reshape how a modern industrial enterprise operates. We're excited to support ArcelorMittal as it shapes what an AI-first future looks like for global manufacturing."
