Wood Mackenzie connects trusted energy intelligence with Microsoft Copilot.

Wood Mackenzie connects trusted energy intelligence with Microsoft Copilot. GlobeNewswire Published Oct 05, 2026 New Model Context Protocol (MCP) connector brings Wood Mackenzie's proprietary energy insights, data and analytical capabilities directly into Microsoft Copilot, enabling faster, more confident decisions LONDON/HOUSTON/SINGAPORE, Oct. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Wood Mackenzie today announced that customers can now access Wood Mackenzie's proprietary content, data and analytical capabilities directly within their Microsoft Copilot environment. Wood Mackenzie for Microsoft Copilot gives authorised users access to Wood Mackenzie research, data and analytical insight through natural-language prompts, directly within Copilot. Story continues below This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. The new capability is built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard that enables AI environments to dynamically discover and use external intelligence. The integration connects Wood Mackenzie's trusted research, datasets and analytical models to Copilot, so that energy and natural resource professionals can surface relevant intelligence without leaving the workflows they already use. Top Stories Interested in more newsletters? Browse here. Embedded where decisions happen As enterprise organisations move from AI experimentation toward embedded AI solutions and agentic workflows, the demand for high-quality, governed external intelligence inside those environments has grown significantly. Enterprise teams increasingly need trusted domain intelligence inside day-to-day decision workflows, not simply general-purpose answers. Wood Mackenzie's plugin for Copilot is designed to meet that demand, bringing trusted energy and natural resource intelligence directly into the environment where professionals are already working. Intelligent discovery across content, data and analytics Story continues below This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Teams have previously needed to navigate workflow fragmentation, switching between platforms and manually exporting, cleaning and reconciling information from separate systems. Wood Mackenzie's plugin for Copilot addresses this directly. Customers can now ask natural-language questions and surface relevant Wood Mackenzie written analysis, discover and retrieve content without manually searching across separate platforms, and bring Wood Mackenzie insights into documents, spreadsheets and internal workflows, all within their Microsoft Copilot environment. The result is faster access to precise, domain-specific intelligence, less manual searching, exporting and reconciling, and more confident decisions grounded in trusted Wood Mackenzie data, methodologies and analyst expertise. Grounded in proprietary data, methodology and analyst expertise The intelligence surfaced through the integration is grounded in Wood Mackenzie's proprietary datasets, methodologies, models and analyst expertise all of which is enhanced by Synoptic, Wood Mackenzie's own application of AI, giving customers greater confidence in the evidence behind critical decisions. By reducing workflow friction and accelerating time to insight, Wood Mackenzie for Copilot is designed to help organisations improve the quality and speed of decision-making across screening, benchmarking, strategic analysis and decision preparation. The Microsoft Copilot integration marks the beginning of Wood Mackenzie's AI connector strategy, designed to bring trusted intelligence into the platforms and workflows customers already use. "AI is becoming the primary environment where analysis is done, decisions are prepared and strategies are tested. Our job is to make sure Wood Mackenzie intelligence, enhanced by our own Synoptic AI, is available inside that environment, governed, traceable and ready to use. This integration means our clients spend less time moving between systems and more time connecting with and applying the insight that matters. This is the first step in a broader initiative and there is more to come as we continue to expand." - Bernardo Rodriguez, Executive Vice President and Chief Product & Technology Officer, Wood Mackenzie "Wood Mackenzie's plugin for Microsoft Copilot demonstrates how domain-specific knowledge can be made accessible directly within the workflows and AI environments organizations are already using. For customers in the energy and natural resources sector, this means the evidence they need to support critical decisions is available where the work is happening." Story continues below This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. - Chantrelle Nielsen, Principal Product Manager for Microsoft Copilot, Microsoft The integration is available now, with expanded data and analytical capabilities being introduced on a phased basis as additional datasets and models become MCP-ready.

The Orix Group, a Japanese financial services conglomerate, has hired Junyeon Park as compliance counsel and global investigations lead. Park comes to Orix from the law firm Herbert Smith Freehills, where she had been counsel for several years.
