Welcome To 2020, Now Let's End Childhood Cancer

Hello everyone, Welcome back to the first video or 2020. I put a new slightly shorter intro together, I would love to hear your thoughts. Let me know if you love it or hate it, or worse, are indifferent.

This first video is not going to be about tech. One of the other areas of focus for FUTRtech is to give something back, and that is what I am going to talk about today.

It is St Baldrick’s time again!

I will be shaving my head on January 26 to raise money for childhood cancer research, and who doesn’t want to help end childhood cancer.

Nutanix held its annual .NEXT conference this year at the Anaheim Convention Center. Word was that about 7,000 people were in attendance. There is a lot happening in the Hyperconverged Infrastructure space now as the large legacy vendors look to make a place in this market. The growth of HPE, Dell, and Cisco in this space have legitimized the HCI market and brought new interest to the products.

SXSW is the most important technology conference of the year. There, I’ve said it. The problem is, very few people in IT are aware of it, and that is a shame. This is the one show of the year that not only highlights emerging technology but wraps it in context. This conference is also very international with different countries showcasing their unique companies, technologies and talents. We can get so lost in our own small world that we miss new market opportunities and technologies from around the globe.
