Some of the biggest Teams news at Microsoft Ignite 2022 includes customizable avatars, a “premium” offering and more integrations with Dynamics 365.

Mesh Avatars In Teams
Microsoft announced a private preview of Mesh avatars for Teams meetings. Teams users can make customized, animated versions of themselves for Teams meetings where they’d rather have cameras off.
Users can design up to three avatars with hundreds of customization options using the Avatars application in the Teams App Store, according to Microsoft. They can also use the avatars to react to conversation in Teams.
Mesh – Nadella has said – could revolutionize mixed reality the way Microsoft’s Xbox Live evolved gaming.
