Upcoming Webinar: Virtualization and Financial Services

I am a huge fan of desktop virtualization as a strategy for mobility - and beyond. I’ll expand on the value of this strategy to the financial community in a Webinar in July.

I was on the road last week, and one of those days was spent with a few CIOs from very large firms talking about mobile devices, BYOD, mobility management, and 802.11ac. I like to illustrate my remarks in these sessions with examples of how one or more elements of mobility might be used to augment or even fundamentally alter, for the better, of course, how a particular market or industry works. I’ve covered education, retail, and hospitality in detail in the past, and now it’s time to turn my attention to financial services.

You can hear the whole story at a Webinar on Wednesday, 17 July at 11:00 AM eastern time. We’ll talk about the needs of the financial community and why desktop virtualization may in fact be the ideal IT strategy for this entire industry. I want to once again thank the management team at Dell Software (particularly Dell Endpoint Systems Management) for the opportunity.

There no charge to attend, and you can get the details and register here. As always, we’ll have plenty of time for your questions, and you’ll be able to learn about new product developments in this space as well. I hope to see you there.
