GTUG Regional Autumn Conference

HPE Customer Technology Center

Herrenberger Str. 140, Building B07, 71034 Böblingen (near Stuttgart)

The 100th GTUG NonStop Autumn Conference took place once again at the Hewlett Packard Enterprise premises on the outskirts of Stuttgart.

The conference was regionally focused as scheduled (targeting participants from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland) and offered an excellent opportunity for in-depth information sharing and discussion in an intimate setting. A series of interesting presentations certainly made the trip to Böblingen worthwhile. Speakers included: Mr. Mathai Philip from HPE EMEA, Mr. Andreas Gratz from Aluminium Norf, Messrs. Bernhard Vey and Roland Lupus from DB Systel, Messrs. Marcus Pullen and Holger Villringer from HPE Germany, and Dr. Werner Alexi from CS Software.

The day concluded with an extraordinary general meeting of GTUG e.V. The meeting was necessary because the 2024 remote assembly had not been recognized by the Munich Register Court for formal reasons. On the evening before the conference, participants were able to get into the spirit of the event over lively conversation.

We would like to warmly thank HPE for their hospitality. Our thanks go to all colleagues who contributed to the success of the event, both in front of and behind the scenes. As always, the agenda with presentations can be accessed via the “Presentations” tab above.

GTUG Regional Autumn Conference

Remote

Unfortunately, the 2024 Autumn Conference, and with it the general members’ meeting, had to be cancelled due to insufficient attendance. It would have been the 99th conference!

We deeply regret this decision, as we had been looking forward to exchanging ideas with you. At the same time, we would like to emphasize how important it is for as many of you as possible to participate in the upcoming online members’ meeting, where the future of the GTUG will be discussed and important decisions made to continue and strengthen the group.

Thank you for your understanding and support. Your participation is crucial to keeping the GTUG successful!

Warm regards, Dr. Werner Alexi, Roland Martin, Jennifer Lacher

New date: Zoom meeting on Wednesday, 30 October 2024 at 3:00 PM. The members’ meeting begins at approximately 3:30 PM.
