HPQ HP Inc

Today at HP Reinvent, HP Inc.’s annual global partner event, the company announced a range of devices and solutions designed to help people boost productivity, collaborate with ease, and work anywhere, with strong security.

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted work environments around the world and it’s clear that hybrid working environments are the new normal. Nearly half of business professionals are working remotely1  and the importance of productivity at home is clear: people want faster PCs and faster internet.2 For IT organizations, 60% are finding ways to support more flexible work arrangements to provide the same level of support at home as users get in office.3 At the same time, more than 40% of IT departments are prioritizing built-in security on employee endpoint devices.4

“With workspaces at home becoming the status quo and businesses supporting their workforce both remotely and back in the office, the PC is essential in these hybrid working environments,” said Andy Rhodes, global head of Commercial Personal Systems, HP Inc. “We’re making our most premium experiences more accessible with new laptops that offer greater mobility to work from anywhere, desktops that bring powerhouse performance to small workspaces, monitors that enable collaboration and support wellbeing, and services that offer comprehensive and flexible solutions – all to support the business transformation happening today.”

The HP E24d and E27d Conferencing Monitors empower users with everything they need to virtually collaborate.
