The first six locations and dates for 2023 in UK and Europe have been confirmed, with more than 2000 expected attendees. With speakers from Axis, its partners, and external experts, issues around evolving technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Cloud will be discussed; while the broader topics of cybersecurity, sustainability, and digital transformation will also take centre stage. Further city locations and dates for EMEA in early 2024 are to be announced soon.
Axis Communications’ Regional Director for Northern Europe, Linn Storäng, commented, “Technology and digital transformation is driving so much exciting change across so many industries. It is important that we take stock of the opportunities arising from that while also being mindful of the broader business issues of cyber security regulation and sustainability agendas. The OPEN events intend to enable peers to connect with each other and experts in the field, discover the latest trends that will impact them and ways to collaborate, and, ultimately, unlock these challenges to realise new business opportunities.”
The OPEN events will be structured around three working areas, including OPEN Mind for inspiring plenary sessions, panel debates and breakout workshops; OPEN Learn, a tech bar to start conversations and answer questions in an intimate and friendly space; and OPEN Zone to enable the easy delivery of presentations and product demos within partner pods. Above all, the focus will be on education, collaboration and networking.
Jos Beernink, Vice President, EMEA, Milestone Systems, states, “Milestone Systems is a partner-driven company, so joining forces with a trusted and valued technology partner such as Axis fits perfectly with our go-to-market strategy.
