The pressure on IT leaders has never been greater.

Organisations are being asked to embrace AI, strengthen security, simplify operations and make better use of their data, all while managing costs and supporting users who expect more from technology than ever before.

The Modern Workplace: Live brings together technology leaders, industry partner specialists and Kerv experts for a practical day focused on what good looks like today. Through live demonstrations, expert-led sessions and hands-on conversations, we’ll explore the technologies, strategies and decisions shaping the modern workplace.

Come for an hour. Stay for the day.

This is a drop-in expo, not a conference. You don’t need to commit a full working day to get value from it and you shouldn’t have to. Whether you have an hour to spare or want to spend the whole day with us, explore live demonstrations, meet industry experts and attend the presentations that matter most to you (feel free to skip the rest).

Build your own agenda and join us whenever suits your schedule. We’ll also have a dedicated workspace available throughout the day, so if you need to catch up on emails, take calls or dip back into work between sessions, you can do so without leaving the event.

Afternoon presentations – 14:00 onwards

AVD and Modern Endpoint Management with Nerdio
See how Azure Virtual Desktop can be deployed, managed and optimised more effectively through automation and orchestration. Through a live demonstration, we’ll show how organisations can simplify management while delivering a better experience for users.

Securing the AI-Enabled Workplace
As AI changes the way organisations work, it also changes the threat landscape. This session examines how security strategies need to evolve, where automation can help, and what leaders should be considering to protect people, data and systems.

Fabric and Data Insight in Action
Discover how modern data platforms can bring information together and make insight more accessible across the organisation. Through practical examples, we’ll demonstrate how data, dashboards and natural-language experiences are helping organisations make faster, better-informed decisions.
