Embracing the future of work
The future of work has undergone a significant transformation, driven by technological advancements and shifting workforce dynamics. Organizations are grappling with the need to create a flexible, inclusive and digitally enabled work environment. At Dell Technologies World, Dell emphasized the importance of embracing this change with platforms like Apex PC as a service and using technology to empower employees, foster collaboration, drive productivity and enable work from anywhere.
Implementing multi-cloud strategy by design, not by default

Dell emphasized the importance of responsible AI implementation, including effective data governance, ethical frameworks and transparent algorithms. Dell and Nvidia highlighted a joint initiative to help businesses easily deploy on-premises generative AI products.
Edge computing: Scaling operations effectively
