How this will affect your organization

- M365 group-owned workspaces are created in the group's geo (delivery of M365 group-owned workspaces is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 422728)
- non-M365 group-owned workspaces are created in the creator's preferred data location.
What you need to do to prepare
There is nothing you need to do to prepare. These changes will roll to your multi-geo configured tenants automatically.
