HP Technology@Work 2008

For 25 years, in one of the longest-running collaborative business relationships in history, Microsoft and HP have worked together to impart stability, deliver high value, and drive new innovation within our partnership and for our customers. Through this global alliance, HP and Microsoft jointly develop and deliver standards and web-based computing solutions that enable people to make faster, smarter business decisions in rapidly changing business environments.

Microsoft and HP share more than 20,000 joint customers worldwide today, many of which have already begun deploying products in the HP and Microsoft Solutions for the People-Ready Business Portfolio. By more tightly integrating technology, marketing and business engagements, the initiative will advance both companies into new growth markets and ultimately helps customers optimise their existing IT investments and empower employees for better business outcomes.
