- Nov 14, 2018 This is not why Equation Editor (aka Microsoft Equation 3.0) is missing from Office 2016 for Mac. It is correct that the OMML editor cannot edit Equation Editor equations. Nor can it edit MathType equations. It's correct that the latest version of MathType for Mac (version 6.7h) cannot integrate into Office 2016 for Mac.
- One of the new features in Office 2016 is “Ink Equation”. This feature allows you to insert equations into Word, Excel, and PowerPoint by handwriting them. Ink Equation is designed to be used with a tablet pen on a tablet PC.

PowerPoint 2016 for Mac finally includes the new-style equation editor (which was already available in Word for Mac and PowerPoint for Windows). An equation can be inserted using a ribbon button (Insert → Insert Equation).
How can I add a keyboard shortcut for this? Is there already a keyboard shortcut for it?

For Word I could use the OS settings from System Preferences → Keyboard and set up a shortcut for the menu item named 'Equation'. But I cannot find a corresponding menu item in PowerPoint. I can only find this feature on the ribbon, but not the in menu. Is there any way to set up a keyboard shortcut for it?
Update:
Since the situation seems to be in flux, here's an update:
- Older versions, including the one that was current when I asked the question, have the undocumented shortcut ⌘-⌥-=. There is no menu item in this versions that would allow setting up a shortcut manually. How to install vim editor for mac. Answer by theoden.
- More recent versions do not have a shortcut built in, but they do have the menu item Insert → Equation, which makes it possible to set up a shortcut manually. Answer by suntoch.

This shortcut is already in PowerPoint:⌘Option=
This produces a place to type an equation when you are in a text box.

You can't post keyboard shortcuts into comments, so I added an answer. I found out about the German keyboard shortcut (by trial and error). It is: ⌘alt´
So, on a German keyboard the equals sign has to be replaced with an apostrophe (the key next to the backspace key (on its left)) @Daniel

The shortcut posted by theoden seems to be broken in new versions.As a workaround one can just go to the System Preferences => Keyboard => Shortcuts => App Shortcuts and add another one for Microsoft PowerPoint with the 'Equation' as Menu Title.

Same as @olik79, I think it is useful to specify that the correct combination on Italian keyboard is Option+ì.
