[What and why]

Microsoft is updating the Brand Kit management experience to make it easier for Brand Managers to set up and maintain their organization’s Brand Kits. The updated experience provides clearer setup guidance, streamlined management of brand assets, and improved workflows as an organization’s brand evolves. This reduces the time and effort required to bring approved brand assets together and helps organizations scale on-brand content creation with Copilot.
