Microsoft is establishing a mostly virtual institute in Latin America that will allow academic researchers to pool information on breakthroughs and find funding for projects in a variety of disciplines.
On Wednesday, Craig Mundie, Microsoft's chief research and strategy officer, is scheduled to launch the Latin American Collaborative Research Federation. He will do so at Microsoft Research's Latin American Academic Summit in Vina del Mar, Chile.
