Industry event for IT decision-makers

Rittal IT practical days in Stuttgart and Munich

(PresseBox) (Herborn, )
The digital transformation means the demand for data centre services will continue to grow strongly in the coming years. Rittal will therefore be holding another two of its successful IT practical days on 20 June (Stuttgart) and 27 June (Munich) to discuss data centre design and efficiency requirements. Under the heading “Data centre technology in transition – from standards to the hybrid cloud”, these events will give IT managers new inspiration and information from industry experts. The highlight will be Tim Cole’s keynote speech on the digital transformation.

Why is the German economy being slow to embrace the digital future? What do companies need to do? These are the questions IT analyst and author Tim Cole will be answering in his keynote speech at Rittal’s IT practical days. Cole has been monitoring and analysing the digital transformation for many years, remaining in close dialogue with business, political and financial leaders. At the industry event on 20 June at the Mercedes Benz Arena in Stuttgart and on 27 June at BMW Welt in Munich, IT decision-makers will discover the opportunities and challenges of the digital transformation at first hand.

Data centre a focal point of digitalisation

“In Tim Cole, we have secured the services of a first-class IT expert and speaker for the practical days. I’m very much looking forward to his speech and to further stimulating discussions about IT trends and issues. IT managers attending the event will obtain valuable business know-how and inspiration direct from the excellent speakers,” says Rittal’s Vice President Sales IT Germany Christian Ludwig. Besides Cole, speakers from Cisco Systems, TÜV IT, PINNOW & Partner  and iNNOVO Cloud will be passing on their experience and expertise  at workshops. The focus will be on the challenges and changes for data centres in the era of digital transformation.
