Alibaba's DingTalk to Operate Independently from Cloud Division
Alibaba's work communication and collaboration platform, DingTalk, will separate from the company's cloud division and operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary. While the exact timing of the split is unknown, there are no expected impacts on DingTalk's services. DingTalk is not confirmed to pursue its own IPO, contrary to reports. Although structurally separated, DingTalk will continue to work closely with Alibaba's cloud division in terms of technology. Alibaba's cloud division is also working towards its own public listing, with plans for an IPO by May next year.
