DESCRIPTION:\nA Journey with IBM - Tech Refresh\n\nMay 19 at Hôtel Le P
 lace d'armes in Luxembourg with Westpole & IBM.\n\n	 \n\n	Join us for a 
 full day dedicated to innovation\, where cloud\, AI\, and cybersecurity c
 onverge to shape the future of enterprise IT.\n\n	 \n\n	The event will cl
 ose with a Q&A session followed by a networking cocktail.\n\n	 \n\n\n\

 aul HERMANN (IBM)\n\n					 \n\n09h45-10h45 :\nSession 1 :  HASHICORP\n
 How HashiCorp helps organisations build and manage modern cloud infrastruc
 ture ?\n\n					 \n\nIn this session\, we will focus on Terraform\, the in
 dustry standard for infrastructure as code\, and Vault\, the leading platf
 orm for managing secrets and protecting encryption keys across modern infr
 astructure. Each solution will be highlighted through its core capabilitie
 s\, use cases\, and business value. Join us for a clear and practical intr
 oduction to two key pillars of the HashiCorp portfolio.\n\n					 \n\n

 ssion\n\nFrom AI Tools to AI Development Systems\n\nMeet IBM Bob – Reinv
 enting Enterprise Software Development\n\nAI‑assisted development has pr
 ogressed rapidly\, yet most tools remain limited to isolated productivity
  gains\, lacking the context\, governance\, and orchestration required for
  enterprise‑scale software delivery.\n\nModern application development d
 emands integration\, scale\, and trust —capabilities traditional AI to
 ols were not designed to deliver.\n\nIBM Bob addresses this gap by enablin
 g organizations to build AI agents and modernize their application estate
 s\, accelerating delivery while reducing complexity and risk.\n\n					 \n
 \nLunch Time\n\n					 \n\n14h00 – 15h00\nSession 3 : Enabling AI\, Hybr
 id Cloud\, and Cyber‑Resiliency at Scale\n\nHow IBM continues to innovat
 e across Storage and Power platforms to help organizations modernize appl
 ications\, accelerate AI use cases\, and build secure\, resilient hybrid c
 loud architectures for mission‑critical workloads.\n\nWe will showcase 
 how AI‑based assistants for storage administrators are transforming day
 ‑to‑day operations\, and how IBM Storage Fusion\, combined with Red Ha
 t technologies\, enables organizations to:\n\n• Modernize traditional an
 d virtualized applications\n\n• Accelerate AI‑driven use cases\n\n• 
 Build secure\, cyber‑resilient hybrid cloud environments\n\nAll while s
 upporting mission‑critical workloads across on‑premises and cloud env
 ironments.\n\n					 \n\n15h30 – 16h30: \n\nSession 4 : Powering AI\, Mo
 dern Applications\, \n\nand Cyber‑Resilient Hybrid Cloud\n\n					 \n\nD
 uring this event\, IBM experts and specialists will share how today’s so
 ftware and infrastructure platforms are evolving to support AI‑driven w
 orkloads\, modern application architectures\, and mission ‑critical resi
 lience— from code to cloud.\n\n• Artificial Intelligence\n\n• Applic
 ation modernization (VMware & OpenShift)\n\n• Cyber‑resilient hybrid
