Microsoft will reportedly take the wraps off Office for iPad today at an event in San Francisco, according to Mary Jo Foley for ZDNet. In addition, the company is also predicted to debut a new Enterprise Mobility Suite for large enterprise customers.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is expected to unveil the long-rumored Microsoft Office for iPad suite on March 27. But there's another Microsoft "suite" that I'm hearing will debut on March 27, too. That suite, a licensing bundle known as the Microsoft Enterprise Mobility Suite (EMS), is for large enterprise customers who need to manage centrally iPads, iPhones, Android devices, Windows devices and more, according to sources of mine who've requested anonymity.

The suite of apps is rumored to include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. A Microsoft Office 365 subscription will most likely be required. Just 10 days ago, Microsoft released OneNote for Mac for the first time.
