Microsoft is giving Teams, its Slack-like app, the ability to invite any guest to a chat room. While you can invite collaborators to a Team room right now, they need to have an account in the company's Azure Active Directory first.

Microsoft brings guest user account to Windows Phone 8 via Kid's Corner
