Nutanix, a leader in hybrid multi-cloud computing, has announced its participation at LEAP, the global platform for the most disruptive technology professionals, taking place in Riyadh.
The company will exhibit under the theme ‘The Power of Simplicity’ and will share its vision and strategy that emphasises that enterprises should take the leap into uncompromising Cloud freedom and embrace a hybrid multi-cloud platform that prioritises simplicity, flexibility and freedom of choice.
Mohamed Abulhouf, Senior Director, Emerging Markets for Nutanix, said: “Digital Transformation will be key enabler of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030. However, we find that a lot of enterprises in the Kingdom grapple with IT complexity – especially when it pertains to the cloud, as a result of multiple vendors, interoperability challenges between technologies and stringent regulations.
“With the intention of supporting the Government’s efforts to accelerate Digital Transformation, our focus at LEAP is to educate organisations on how they can simplify cloud infrastructures and allow for a consistent IT operating model, which is critical for success. We are bringing simplicity to the B2B technology stack and this is at the heart of the design of our solutions. We offer unparalleled freedom of choice to customers and help organisations simplify cloud complexity with an open, software-defined hybrid multi-cloud platform, so that they can focus on business outcomes and new innovations.”
Nada Khan, Head of Marketing, Emerging Markets at Nutanix, said: “We are proud to participate again at LEAP for the second consecutive year – an event designed to inspire and educate. It brings together top IT professionals from large multinational organisations, government stakeholders and policy makers – essentially everyone attending, is either shaping the IT landscape, contributing to it, or successfully thriving in it. It is a brilliant platform to promote our brand. More importantly, it’s a way to re-connect with our customers and partners at scale.”
One of Nutanix’s key focus areas at LEAP is around education. The company is committed to ensuring that its customers and partners receive the latest education and certifications to allow them to enhance their knowledge and value and better themselves in their roles. To this end, company executives will be discussing Nutanix University which features programs that are a mix of online, in-person and self-paced learning. The company will also be promoting Nutanix User Group, which is a dedicated technical community for its Saudi IT champions. In an effort to help develop IT skills in the country, Nutanix is working with public academies, to build educational services for Saudi youth to train them with technical skills that are needed for the future.
“We wish to showcase our commitment to education. Education is also one of main pillars of Saudi’s Vision 2030 and we are committed to supporting this mission by providing technical education to Saudi youth,” said Abulhouf.
