initiatives designed to help partners meet and exceed customers’
evolving expectations. Inviting its partners to ‘Amplify our Future
Together’, HP delivered an agenda centered around the evolving
industry landscape and transformative trends shaping our world
today.
Hosted by members of HP’s leadership team, including President
& Chief Executive Officer Enrique Lores and Chief Commercial
Officer Christoph Schell, the event explored a broad range of
topics centered around the evolving customer journey and digital
transformation, the rise of the prosumer, the future of education

a call-to-action for partners to embrace HP’s long-standing
commitment to Sustainable Impact and equality.

“The key to innovation is understanding our customers – pushing
technology to the limit and generating new imaginative solutions
aimed at meeting the needs of customers in the new normal,” said
Christoph Schell, Chief Commercial Officer at HP. “The forces
shaping our world and the way in which we do business today have
dramatically shifted. Together with our partners we must define a
course for the future where we are defined by the outcomes we
enable, not simply the products we sell.”
Enhanced PC solutions to enable new ways of working
The future of work has accelerated on a dramatic scale with
several years’ worth of transformation happening in mere months.
Employees rapidly shifted to working from home, businesses big and
small raced to replace physical transactions, connections and
workflows with digital counterparts, and students and teachers
adapted to online learning. As hybrid organizations and workplaces
become the new standard, IT departments are focusing on making
remote employees as productive, connected, and secure as
possible.
To address this new reality, HP today introduced a range of
enhanced PC solutions designed to address a variety of rapidly
evolving work environments, providing flexibility for partners and
customers of all sizes. New PC innovations include:
- HP ProBook 635 Aero G7, the world’s lightest AMD-based business
notebook
- HP ProBook 600 G8 and 400 G8 PC Series designed for
professionals at growing companies
- HP EliteDesk 805 G6 Series designed to meet the demands of a
multi-task workday
- HP ProDesk 405 G6 Series featuring the latest AMD Ryzen™ PRO
series processors
- HP E24t G4 Touch Monitor with integrated fast and responsive
in-cell touch technology
- HP E24d and E27d Conferencing Monitors optimized for virtual
collaboration
- HP Business Boost: bundled PS and Print hardware and services
optimized for SMBs
- HP Device as a Service (DaaS) program updates
Reinvented print solutions deliver value, simplicity and
efficiency
The shift to remote and distributed workforces has accelerated
many companies’ efforts for remote management and digitized
workflows. As customer buying behaviors continue to evolve -
everyone – from large enterprises and governments to SMBs and
individual employees have had to adapt to new workspaces and
digital business methods.
In response to these changing dynamics, the company launched new
print products, services and solutions optimized to enable new ways
of working, new ways of managing and new ways of buying. New Print
innovations include:
- HP LaserJet Enterprise 400 Series, HP’s smallest
enterprise-class experience
- HP DesignJet portfolio for architect, engineer, construction
and home offices
- Document Workflow Cloud solution for simplifying the flow of
information from paper to digital
- Fleet Onboarding tool enabling partners to quickly onboard HP
Workpath across printer fleet
- Expansion of subscription-based plans for toner
Call to action to drive meaningful change in diversifying the IT
channel ecosystem
HP’s dedication to sustainable impact has long been integral to
its business strategy and operations. As a central component of
HP’s new Amplify channel partner program launching November 1, HP
today issued a call-to-action to its partner community to lean in
to driving meaningful change across the global IT industry across
the three pillars of Sustainable Impact: people, planet and
community – with an emphasis on racial and gender equality.
HP Amplify Impact represents a first-of-its kind partner
assessment and training program, providing the tools and resources
required to identify potential gaps in the goals partners wish to
set and provide guidance on how to achieve those goals. Partners
will be recognized via an annual certification and awards program.
The company set an ambitious goal of enrolling at least 50 percent
of its global channel partners in the voluntary program by
2025.
