Dell Technologies, in collaboration with Intel, is proud to sponsor the Digital Transformation Expo (DTX) Manchester. Part of Manchester Tech Week 2023 (15-19 May 2023), DTX Manchester is the North’s biggest digital transformation event focused on how organisations can improve connectivity and implement cutting-edge enterprise technologies. MTW 2023 will feature a collective of some of the region’s institutions, community groups, associations, and the Northern tech community.
Why Manchester?
The North of England is known as the birthplace of the industrial revolution, famous for its manufacturing expertise, and a global centre for creativity and design. The region has a diverse economy worth more than £340 billion, greater than that of Austria and Norway.
Manchester has become one of the prominent tech hubs outside of London. Manchester tech companies raised a record £532 millions of funding in 2022. This is a 50 per cent increase compared to 2021 and more than many major European cities, including Rome, Brussels, Warsaw and Lisbon.
In addition, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announced the creation of the Manchester Prize in his Spring Budget – an annual prize of £1m a year for the next ten years for ground-breaking AI research.
That is why Dell Technologies and Intel are proud to support DTX Manchester and present innovative solutions across the future of work, multicloud, energy efficiency, circular design, data and AI, the edge and cyber resilience – connecting with the growing technology community of the North of England. It is an opportunity to exchange ideas and explore partnerships that could start a ripple effect, enhancing efficiency, resilience and progress across the whole UK tech sector.
Celebrating innovation: why join Dell Technologies and Intel at DTX Manchester
Dell Technologies and our customers are driven by innovation. Focused, scalable innovation drives growth and protects companies from challenges that might otherwise defeat them. Therefore, at DTX Manchester, Dell Technologies will spotlight the innovations transforming the workplace, processes, people and the planet, through a series of key sessions, roundtables and networking events.
We will be doing this in the context of a constantly changing operational landscape. Over the past years, organisations transformed their approach to work. But this overnight move to remote and hybrid working was just the beginning and continued momentum is needed.
Our sessions will focus on how to work and innovate everywhere. We will explore how personalised, responsive, collaborative technology can fuel innovation and how organisations can set intentional, human-centred strategies that will set them up for success.
One of the key enablers for this is a unified cloud strategy. Most organisations have created a multicloud environment by default: an amalgamation of cloud platforms, apps and tools. This complexity often costs organisations time and money.
What we will be talking about at Manchester Tech Week, is why businesses need a multicloud by design strategy to achieve faster outcomes, manage resources and reduce costs.
Multicloud also gives organisations better control over their data, which today is an organisation’s sight, hearing, sense of smell and their nervous system. Without it they lack direction, focus and discernment.
To get to those insights, businesses need a data culture and modern data infrastructure, utilising AI to supercharge productivity, improve energy efficiency, accelerate innovation and collect, prepare and curate data to their needs. We will be sharing our insights into how you can do that.
With so much data, it becomes even more important that organisations have structures in place to protect it. Businesses can transform security with confidence if they find the right balance between speed and cybersecurity. That comes from a holistic approach and enacting Zero Trust principles and architecture, to strengthen with modern security, prepare for threats and maintain a minimum viable enterprise to continue operating after a cyber-attack.
Throughout Manchester Tech Week, we will be demonstrating the opportunities of emerging technologies to prepare organisations for a more secure, innovative future.
Our bespoke exhibition stand will bring all of this together in one place. Delegates will be able to connect with the team and interact with a range of experiential displays including:
- CONCEPT LUNA: See the next evolution of our breakthrough prototype for the future of sustainable PC design. Concept Luna design eliminates the need for adhesives and cables and nearly eliminates the use of screws, reducing disassembly time to mere minutes. We also added in intelligent telemetry and robotic automation, which can help to scale our efforts.
- VR ESCAPE ROOM: guests of the stand will be invited to play a 10-minute game in virtual reality that can help them learn how to avoid the most common cybersecurity threats, with prizes for those who succeed.
- POWER COOLING DEMO: see PowerEdge servers being cooled using single-phase liquid immersion technology from Green Revolution Cooling (GRC).
We are looking forward to meeting you at the Digital Transformation Expo (DTX) in Manchester. To attend the event for free, register here.
