The CavalryHQ has arrived!
Welcome to this beautiful place, where Workstation is always the most important topic and empowering talented users is our top priority!
Get Ready, we will use the W-word a lot around here!
How did we end up here?
My passion for Workstations started when I was in High School in the mid-90s, my real passion is 3D animation, and due to its overwhelming hardware demands, sent me on a path to discover technology, high performance compute and a technical career. All this deserve a full detailed article, but my point is: “I have cared about Workstation for multiple decades!”
After a 22-year career at Intel, that included 3 countries, 12 roles in almost every division and culminated with the last 5 years leading Global Sales for Workstations, I want to build a safe space to discuss some aspects of the Workstation market and how we technologists can better empower the most demanding users across all Professional Workflows and industries and work together to move the world forward.
Who am I looking for to join this mission?
Do you belong to any one of these groups?
You belong to an Engineering, Product Marketing, Sales or Go-To-Market of:
High-performance Workstation CPUs or GPUs at a Hardware Vendor like Nvidia, Intel, AMD or Qualcomm
Full workstation solutions at an OEM like Dell, HP, Lenovo, BOXX, Puget Systems, Supermicro, etc.
You are part of a Software Vendor (ISV) of a key application in Workflows like Media & Entertainment, Architecture, Engineering & Construction, Product Development/Manufacturing, Data Science or A.I. Development
You are a power user for any Workflow using one or multiple applications for the mentioned industries, i.e. key applications for 3D Modeling, texturing & animation, video & VFX, CAD, simulation or Data/AI frameworks & tools
I’m doing this to connect all of us and have discussions around how to work together to build better experiences from the tech industry for power users!
This is my invitation, let’s unleash users’ talents with technology, so they can move the world forward!
