Micro Focus Universe 2021 annual event kicks off on March 23

Micro Focus Universe 2021, the annual flagship customer event by the software giant, kicks off on March 23 (for EMEA and the Americas).

Attendees in the two-day virtual event will learn more about Micro Focus’ vision and product investments, as well as gain deeper insights into the company’s customer agenda from Micro Focus executives, and partners Jaguar Racing, PwC, and DXC.

James Barclay, team director of Jaguar Racing will be a keynote speaker at the event, where he will discuss how “the two organisations will work together to accelerate delivery, simplify transformation, strengthen resilience, and analyse in time to act – all of which are key elements of winning both in the boardroom and on the track.”

Micro Focus recently announced a technical partnership with Jaguar Racing as the Formula E team pursues glory at the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.

A key theme at this year’s event will be how Micro Focus can help its customers “win in the digital economy by delivering on the promise of High Tech, Low Drama.”

With more than 1,000 product releases in the last 24 months and one of the world’s largest patent portfolios, Micro Focus is already in a strong position to deliver high tech. Low drama emphasises the company’s commitment to bringing together the product breadth, technology, and expertise necessary to help customers run and transform at the same time without surprises.

“Attendance at Micro Focus Universe has been steadily increasing over the past few years – with a considerable spike last year as we evolved the traditionally in-person event to virtual – and we expect the addition of Jaguar Racing to the agenda to provide another significant boost in 2021,” said Eric Varness, chief marketing officer at Micro Focus.

“Our customers love to hear from their peers about the innovative ways our technology can be used, and our new position as Jaguar Racing’s official digital transformation, business resiliency and analytics partner will certainly provide some exciting new success stories.”
