ArcelorMittal Strengthens Collaboration With Microsoft for AI Solutions
08/03/2026 - ArcelorMittal announced it will expand its collaboration with Microsoft as it works to become a data-driven, AI-enabled organization and strengthen its digital foundation.
ArcelorMittal said it will use Microsoft Azure as its cloud computing platform. Azure will modernize IT systems, consolidate data, and deploy advanced analytics and AI across global systems and business processes.
“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,” said Nik Puri, chief information officer at ArcelorMittal.
The company will also use Microsoft Fabric, Purview and Foundry alongside Azure. This will scale digital innovation for faster delivery of AI-powered solutions; strengthen cybersecurity, system reliability and resilience; and drive operational efficiency while reducing dependence on old IT systems.
“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,” said Samer Abu-Ltaif, president of Europe, Middle East and Africa at Microsoft.
