Dell Technologies World 2018 hosted some 14,000 visitors recently, showcasing how Dell Technologies businesses will play a fundamental role in helping them envision and realise their digital future.

“Dell Technologies World is our opportunity to share our vision of technology as the driver of human progress in every corner of the world,” said Michael Dell, Chairman and CEO, Dell Technologies, at the launch of the event.

“We will showcase ways, big and small, our customers are using technology to change the world for the better, whether through a reimagined process or a reimagined industry. We talk often about technology solving our greatest challenges, and we’re making more progress more quickly than ever before.”

Announcements at Dell Technologies World included:

Dell Technologies Innovators and Trailblazers customer award winners, including eight industry leaders exemplifying excellence across all stages of the digital transformation journey.

Strong investment momentum through Dell Technologies Capital. The company’s venture practice competed 24 investments since emerging from stealth. It had 11 exits from its portfolio, of which three have gone public in the past seven months, all unicorn initial public offerings (IPOs) with a collective market value of more than US$11 billion.

Dell Technologies is also investing in new programmes, incentives and solutions designed to fast-track channel partners’ delivery of digital, IT, security and workforce transformations for their customers.

“Our customers are responding to the power of our combined company, creating good momentum as we kick off 2018,” said Jeff Clarke, Vice Chairman, Products and Operations, Dell.

“We currently have the No. 1 worldwide market share in key areas like servers and storage. When the first calendar quarter 2018 industry market share numbers are final, we expect to increase our worldwide PC market share for the 21st consecutive quarter, and gain share in servers and storage.

"We have exciting announcements planned across our portfolio at this year’s event that are driving this leadership and our customers’ digital transformation, ultimately resulting in better business outcomes.”

Dell Technologies World reflects the increasing need of IT practitioners to have a one-stop shop for the essential infrastructure they need to build their digital future, transform IT and protect their most important asset — information. Nearly all (94%) of 2017 attendees said they would recommend attending to their peers; 92% say this event has a “great return on investment” and 95% said they are more effective at work after having attended.
