HP DISCOVER 2011 - 28 UNIQUE HPES SESSIONS

[#1]

The other day I was with a group of friends at a pizzeria in Palo Alto, CA when one of them asked me what HP DISCOVER 2011 was about?

I went on to explain to them that HP combined its annual HP Software Universe, HP Technology Forum and HP Technology@Work into a single event—HP DISCOVER, and that the event will take place on June 6-10 in Las Vegas at the Venetian Resort. And, that Paul McCartney would be performing a private concert. “Very cool,” they mumbled with mouths half-full of pizza.

Later it occurred to me that there was so much more to HP DISCOVER that I could have, and should have shared with them. Yes, Vegas is a “very cool” town with lots to see and do. Yes, the Venetian is a beautiful resort to host a conference. And yes, Paul McCartney does put on a great show—I saw him over the summer when he played at the ballpark in San Francisco. But HP Discover 2011 is so much more.
