Welcome to Markets Desk, here's what's moving.
Marsh and McLennan is expanding its footprint in investment advisory, announcing a deal to acquire Wilshire from CC Capital and Motive Partners. Terms weren't disclosed, but the move deepens Marsh's analytics and solutions capabilities at a time when professional services firms are competing hard for institutional client relationships.
Shifting to the technology sector, Ohio State University and Microsoft have inked a five-year partnership focused on advancing artificial intelligence in healthcare and research. For Microsoft, this continues a deliberate strategy of embedding Azure and AI infrastructure into major academic medical systems, building both long-term cloud revenue and reputational positioning in a high-growth vertical.
And in space infrastructure, Redwire posted third-quarter two thousand twenty six revenue of one hundred nine million dollars. The company remains one of the smaller but closely watched names in commercial space, and that top-line figure will be the number investors scrutinize as they weigh whether Redwire's pipeline is translating into durable, scalable revenue against a backdrop of intensifying competition.
That's the tape. Markets Desk, signing off the floor.
