For years, end-user computing has been about delivering Microsoft Windows.

We started with desktops, then laptops, then remote desktops with Terminal Server and Citrix. After that we started mixing in VDI and client-based virtual machines, OS streaming, and application virtualisation.

And now that we've finally started to figure out how to do Windows, users have started bringing in touch-based tablets and Web apps.

We're trying to figure out how to balance their devices, Web apps, and SaaS apps while our entire end-user experience is built around the traditional Microsoft Windows desktop.

So what do we do?

That's where BriForum comes in!

BriForum 2013 is the only technical virtualisation conference that is completely dedicated to desktop virtualisation, VDI, application virtualisation, Remote Desktop Services, and the consumerisation of IT.

This is your exclusive opportunity to participate in 25+ technical breakout sessions led by expert speakers who provide the most independent, advanced information and best practices around this constantly evolving space. Top-notch industry analysts, bloggers and best-selling authors will tackle these issues and virtualisation technologies head-on and offer the latest tips, tricks, and verified techniques that can be applied immediately within your organisation. They talk honestly and openly about technical challenges they have faced, how they solved them, what works and what does not work.

You won't want to miss out on this essential desktop virtualisation conference. Registration is now open -  reserve your seat today!

Attendee Testimonials

See what your peers have said about our past BriForum events:

'This is by far the best conference. There is really a sense of community cooperation and involvement... and we do not always need to agree. I love being in a session and the presenter is talking about a particular technology and the person next to me is the person wholly or partially responsible for creating the technology'.

'BriForum is an awesome event, the content alone is worth going for even if I had to sleep in a tent outside'.

'I like the community feel. It’s rare that you attend a conference where you have all access to the presenters during and after the conference hours to discuss information'.

'Most enjoyable conference I've participated in. I'll definitely be back next year'.

'This was my first time and I must say it was the best technical conference I've ever attended in 15+ years of IT. I will be back even if my boss doesn't pay'.

 

'So many good presentations full of great information covering an excellent range of topics. Wish I could attend again and see the ones I missed'.

'I enjoyed bouncing ideas off of vendors and Brian Madden himself. It is nice to interact with other people who are dealing with the same potential problems we are'.

'It was great having a real Citrix and Microsoft presence there. I had a chance to sit down with both groups and get some real one-on-one time. I know not everyone did it, nor would there be that type of offering; however, I did it, and I am that much for fulfilled because of it. The sessions were great, but I got LOADS of information in those two "private encounters"'.

'The quality of the speakers and topics were very well done for this tech-centric crowd'.
