Today the VMworld EU 2018 will officially begin with a specific day dedicated to partners, but also with a lot of other events, including a local VMUG event.
Still at Barcelona (maybe it will be the last year in this city, after a long row of editions?), just moved from Septembed to the first week of November.
What you should expect from this VMworld? Something has already been announced at the VMworld US 2018, but there will other news.
To help prepare you for this event, VMware has curated everything you need to know before touching down at VMworld 2018 Europe: just look at this page.
As usaul there will be also a conference shuttle service provided from Barcelona-El Prat airport to the Fira Gran Via on 4-5 November. Shuttles will run every 30 minutes from Terminals 1 and 2. On 8 November, departure transfer shuttles will run from the Fira to the airport from 12:00-18:00, with a shuttle coming every 15 minutes.
VMworld 2018 Europe will boast two general sessions featuring top VMware leaders discussing the company’s industry perspective on digital business, transformative technologies and innovation. Details on each below:
- Technology Superpowers – Tuesday, 6 November, 9:00 – 10:30
Join the VMware 20th anniversary celebration as Pat Gelsinger, VMware CEO and Ray O’Farrell, VMware CTO share what superpowers are needed to navigate the disruptive world of technology. Pat, Ray and additional guest speakers will discuss how to innovatively build and navigate the digital infrastructure that powers digital business.
