Employee Focus Group

Pointnext

With the launch of HPE Pointnext, we created a goal to be a more cohesive, integrated
organization. Doing so will help us partner better, innovate faster, and ultimately work more
successfully with customers and other HPE organizations. Each of us can do our part by
making sure we’re staying informed on what is happening across the business.

To help keep you connected, we’re launching the HPE Pointnext homepage on HPE

Here you will find tools, resources, org charts, links to HPE Pointnext business pages, and
more.
This page is also home to our HPE Pointnext leadership blog. Check the columns weekly for
HPE Pointnext news and updates from Ana Pinczuk and the leadership team.
