FR ANKFURT CONNECT 2018 / TESTIMONIALS
I attended the Frankfurt Connect conference and as an operator was surprised by how many suppliers were actually in the audience. The topics presented at the conference were very relevant, future looking and informative and the quality of panelists and moderators were in general excellent. Even as a panelist, I certainly learned a lot and there was plenty of time for networking in a very relaxed atmosphere. LEO LUNDY Group CTO Imagine Communications Group

I was impressed by the level of expertise present in the panels as I was with the number of high ranking executive from Telco and Other industries.
CHRISTIAN HOFFMANN Managing Director Accenture
Speaking as one of the panelists discussing AI I found this event very well done, the topics are relevant as well as the attending stakeholders. Draleo and iCU are event pro's and know, how social media can be leveraged. CU next time!
A XEL SIMON Chief Technologist Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company
It was Vertiv’s first time participating at Frankfurt Connect, and I was fortunate to be invited to join as a member of the panel discussing ‘Driving Business at the Edge’. The panel saw great debate on arguably the hottest technology topic right now which is impacting organisations from a wide range of industries. The networking opportunities were excellent and allowed me to build stronger connections. It was a pleasure to help contribute.
GIORDANO ALBERTA ZZI President of Vertiv in Europe, Middle East & Africa Vertiv
High profile discussions partners and guests. The event was well organized in a professional manner. I would join again.
