(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — In an email newsletter Hosting software developer Parallels described what the company believes will be some of the highlights of its 2012 partner summit, which will take place from February 14-16 in Orlando, Florida.
Along with previously-announced keynote presentations from tech celebrity Guy Kawasaki, Gartner analyst Tiffani Bova, e-commerce author Marsha Collier and Parallels CEO Birger Steen, the company revealed a few specifics about program and format items.
Among those is a series of “ask the experts” Q&A sessions with each of the keynote speakers. These sessions will require pre-registration, and will be filled according to the date of registration.
Parallels says it will be providing attendees with the first look at the 2012 edition of the Parallels SMB Cloud Insights study. A session at the show will provide an in-depth look into the report and the significance of its results.
The company has also added a series of hands-on labs to the program, including six courses focusing on a range of Parallels products that includes Plesk Panel, Virtuozzo Containers, Parallels Automation, Parallels Business Automation and APS development and implementation.
Parallels also says it has created an “innovation zone,” which will enable attendees to work with individual Parallels products via demos and presentations delivered by experts from within the company.
As with past Parallels summit events, the WHIR will be on hand to provide complete coverage, including news, features, blogs and WHIR TV video interviews.
According to the announcement, discounted registration for the event is available until November 30, 2011.
