HPE Discover

HPE Discover is the Hewlett Packard Enterprise showcase technology event for business and government customers. In 2011, HP Enterprise Business, along with participating independent user groups, combined its annual HP Software Universe, HP Technology Forum and HP Technology@Work into a single event, HP Discover.[1] There are now two HPE Discover events annually, one for the Americas and one for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA). Since the split of Hewlett-Packard into HP Inc and Hewlett Packard Enterprise, HP Discover was replaced with HPE Discover focusing on the enterprise company's products and services.
