VMware Update on VMworld 2020

Business Wire
Over the past several weeks, VMware leadership has been
monitoring and evaluating the situation around COVID-19 to ensure
the company is taking the necessary measures to protect the health
and wellbeing of VMworld 2020 attendees, customers, partners and
employees. As a result, VMware has made the difficult but important
decision to make VMworld 2020 a global, digital event the week of
Sept. 28 and cancel the physical events currently scheduled in
August for San Francisco and November for Barcelona.
“Each year we look forward to hosting our customers, partners
and employees from around the world at our premiere VMworld events
for industry perspective, education and networking with peers,”
said Sanjay Poonen, chief operating officer, Customer Operations,
VMware. “While we are disappointed that we will not be together
in-person with our community this year, we are excited to host
VMworld as a global digital experience.”
As a digital event the week of Sept. 28, VMworld 2020 will
enable remote participation and collaboration from anywhere in the
world. VMware is committed to ensuring that the digital event
reflects the VMworld experience that so many in the industry have
come to know and love. In this new format, attendees can still hear
about innovative new technology solutions, perspective from VMware
executives, dive into educational and technical content, and engage
with experts across the industry ecosystem. VMware is also
considering regional, smaller, physical gatherings later this
autumn.
VMware will provide more details about VMworld 2020 in the
coming weeks.
