🗓️ On this day in 2016, Microsoft made its biggest move at the time: acquiring LinkedIn for $26.2 billion. The platform kept its name and CEO, Jeff Weiner, but became central to Satya Nadella’s broader vision to push Microsoft beyond software and into the heart of professional life. While the Activision Blizzard deal eventually surpassed it in size, LinkedIn remains one of Microsoft’s most strategic assets—fueling its growth in enterprise tools, cloud services, and AI-powered learning. Today, it has over 1.2 billion members and draws nearly 1.8 billion visits each month. It counts over 234 million users in the U.S. alone. Nearly 43% of all consumers have a LinkedIn profile, and one in four engage with brand content daily. Most users are 25–34, with Gen Z quickly joining as they enter the workforce. Almost a decade after the deal, LinkedIn has grown far beyond a digital résumé—it’s where careers are built and business happens. (h/t Sprout Social, Statista)
