Microsoft is reportedly planning to add R&D resources for Dynamics CRM in Prague, Czech Republic.

Czech Radio and the Czech News Agency report that Microsoft announced it wants to employ 80 people by the end of this year. Within the next three years, it would like to create up to 200 new posts.

Microsoft director of engineering for Dynamics CRM Martin Košťál reportedly told the Czech News Agency:

"CRM applications have significantly influence and will continue to influence the area of customer relationship management, but also marketing and sales. This is why Microsoft's decision to strengthen CRM development is a logical step to take."

The Dynamics CRM team is known to do its R&D work in Microsoft development centers around the world, including in India, the US, and Denmark.

Microsoft appears to have made other recent increases in R&D investment for the Dynamics product line in what were believed to be dozens of new hires at development centers for Dynamics 365 for Business (or SMB, a.k.a. "Project Madeira") earlier in 2016.
