Global Storage Forum

Things are moving fast in 2025 and in case you didn’t notice we just announced our IBM Champions class of 2025! What a way to start the year, and what a chance to celebrate our new class. Now with that, we’ve even got more to talk about this week and IBM Storage is right there.  

Not only do we have a great class of IBM Champions that are advocates for IBM Storage to applaud, but today we announced that call for speakers for IBM TechXchange Conference 2025 is now open! That’s right, we’re already deep into the planning for the conference in October, and now’s the right time to start thinking about what you might want to say! You can find more information about IBM TechXchange 2025 here and you can even have a look at what some of the sessions were in 2024’s conference by looking at the previous agenda.

With that in mind, think of what’s next! Think of what from IBM Storage you might be interested in presenting, collaborating on, or highlighting at the conference this year! Have a look at the call for speakers information and keep in mind there is more than one way to be a speaker at the event.

Just like last year IBM Storage is going to organize along the themes that matter to our community. Topics like Storage for Data and AI, IBM watsonx, IBM FlashSystem and Storage for Data Resiliency, IBM Storage for Z will all be in focus this year and more. Now, take a step back, have a moment to think, and maybe submit a session idea that you are passionate about.  The call for speakers deadline is April 11, 2025, and that’s going to come fast.  Drop in an idea and an outline, get started.

By the way, in case you are looking for a bit more inspiration from last year, you can still access the catalog of presentations.

Looking forward to seeing everyone this year!
