Four compelling reasons to attend.
Forget empty promises. You'll get hard facts, clear comparisons and first-hand insights to help you make your next hardware decision with confidence.
See a repair in action.
Watch a ThinkPad being taken apart and restored right before your eyes. iFixit and Gartner ratings demonstrate that repairability has been a core design consideration from day one.
Do the maths before you replace.
We’ll show why prices are rising and lead times are extending, and at what point continuing to use existing devices becomes more cost-effective than buying new ones.
One partner for everything.
Procurement, repairs, support and device returns are all handled through a single partner, ensuring longevity isn't held back by organisational complexity.
Demo devices at half price.
As a guest, you can reserve demo devices with a 50% discount directly through your Bechtle account manager (while stocks last).
