THE WAY
YOU NEED IT

Is Virtualization part of your
corporate desktop strategy?
Successful desktop virtualization reduces the high cost of ownership
and security risks of physical PCs and reduce desk desktop
management through standardization.

However, these beneﬁts can only be realized if you offer your end-users
nothing less than the physical PC experience they have been used to.
— This is why you need User Workspace Management!

The world leading user workspace management solution to the enterprise, RES
PowerFuse enables IT professionals to dynamically compose and manage a
personalized and secure workspace for each and every user - separately from the
user’s underlying virtual desktop. This greatly simpliﬁes IT administration, ensures
compliance, and saves money.

VIRTUALISATION Executive Summit
09-10 November 2009: Grand Hotel Huis ter Duin, Noordwijk aan Zee 03

Welcome
to the Virtualisation Executive Summit 2009

Dear Colleague,

On behalf of Tech:Touchstone Events it is our pleasure to welcome you to the Virtualisation
Executive Summit at the prestigious Grand Hotel Huis ter Duin, Noordwijk aan Zee.

As IT departments are increasingly being asked to do more with less, virtualisation technologies
offer a direct and tangible means of achieving operational efficiency and cost saving objectives
by aggregating disparate computing resources into shareable pools.

According to industry analysts, virtualisation will be the single most important technology for
IT departments by 2010 and the highest-impact trend changing infrastructure and operations
through 2012.

Over the next two days, the Virtualisation Executive Summit will connect senior IT Executives
who are committed to developing virtualisation strategies with industry peers, leading solution
providers and industry analysts in a high impact networking and learning environment where
the priority is to create shortlists of strategy and potential partners – in so doing saving you
many weeks of research, sourcing and relationship building!

We hope you enjoy the next couple of days, gain valuable knowledge and develop productive
relationships and look forward to welcoming you to future Tech:Touchstone events!

Kind regards

Simeon Turner & Jim Pierce
