The Need for Physical

In a tech world increasingly dominated by the cloud, endpoints are more critical than ever. This session explores why they matter and how to make them faster, smarter, and more efficient (including some epic demos) Technologies we will cover: deployment with Omnissa Workspace ONE UEM, Omnissa App Volumes on physical devices and validating everything with Login Enterprise for Physical Endpoints! (We are pretty sure you have never seen this in a session before!) And for the grand finale: “Dominate the Race, Rule the streets “. Who will claim the title of Physical Endpoint Champion? Start your engines — this is the Need for Physical!

Technologist Digital Workspace

Meet Jesper Alberts: EUC Architect and Digital Experience Advocate

Jesper Alberts is a passionate End-User Computing (EUC) architect from the Netherlands with a deep focus on enhancing the digital employee experience. With a background that spans IT administration, consulting and architecture, Jesper thrives on designing and improving solutions that deliver real value to users and businesses alike. His fascination with IT began early — at the age of six — when he first started tinkering with computers. That curiosity grew into a career rooted in virtualization, sparked during his first internship where he encountered VMware ESX for the first time. The possibilities of virtualization captivated him and shaped the trajectory of his professional path.

From intern to VCDX #301

Over the years, Jesper explored every layer of IT infrastructure before finding his true calling in EUC. In December 2023, after an intense 18-month journey, he earned the highly respected VMware Certified Design Expert (VCDX) certification in EUC — becoming one of only 20 people worldwide to hold this title in his track, and VCDX #301 overall. This certification recognizes his ability to design and implement IT environments that align with business objectives at the highest level. Jesper is known for his ability to zoom out, see the big picture, and stay calm under pressure — qualities that make him a trusted voice in any team or project setting.

Active in the community and beyond

Outside of project work, Jesper plays an active role in the broader tech community. He is part of the leadership team of vEUC TechCon, a community-driven event focused on the latest trends and best practices in EUC. He also regularly takes the stage as a speaker, sharing insights and learnings with others. When not immersed in technology, Jesper enjoys road cycling across the Netherlands, spending time with his family, or experimenting in his homelab — always learning, always exploring.
