Innovation Journal · Issue 2 Spring 2016 InnovationISSUE 2: SPRING 2016 INVENTING Journal THE BLENDED WORLD OF TOMORROW Charting a course for the future In this issue: Megatrends shaping our future & HP strategy Page 4 Ambient computing in the fabric of everyday life Page 8 Celebrating HP Labs 50th anniversary Page 11 Accelerating into the future with partners Page 12 Innovation spotlight: HP Sprout Pro & Elite X3 Page 16 Meet amazing talents in HP Taiwan & Brazil Page 18 Megatrends are on our minds as we release this second installment of the quarterly HP Innovation Journal. As I noted in the first issue, the vision of the new HP is to create technology that makes life better for everyone, everywhere. As you’ll read in these pages, that’s a commitment we are doubling down on with deep thinking, planning, and innovating around socio-economic trends that are profoundly influencing where and how we live and work. As a global population, we’re looking at who we are, how we are, where we are, and what kind of world we’ll be living in, a decade or two from now. Taken together, these trends create a picture of where the world is going, and of the technology that will be needed in the future. We study developments that are transforming our business and social land- scape, and we’re inspired to adapt and evolve. From Bristol to Boise to Taipei, our passion for shaping our future by engineering experiences that amaze is unwavering. In celebration of that global commit- ment we are releasing this issue to coincide with the Personal Systems Innovation Summit in Taiwan. The features you’ll find in this issue include an over- view of megatrends, and an exploration of ambient computing and its role in the future of home and work. You’ll also learn about how our innovation efforts apply not only to products—but to processes, as we expand the journal to include coverage of the dramat- ic and positive changes in our channel strategy. As we share so much at HP that is exciting and new, we’re also marking, this month, an incredible mile- stone. March 3, 2016 marked the 50th anniversary of HP Labs. Our innovative spirit shines every bit as brightly today as it did at HP’s founding. Labs continues its mission to create, identify, and develop novel technologies and experiences that delight customers and define the future of HP. To the road ahead, Shane Wall Chief Technology Officer and Global Head of HP Labs 2 Innovation Journal Issue 2 InnovationISSUE 2: SPRING 2016 INVENTING Journal THE BLENDED WORLD OF TOMORROW Contributors Mei Jiang Editor-In-Chief Chandrakant Patel Managing Editor Doug Warner Executive Editor Andrew Bolwell Contributor Philipp Jung Contributor The HP Innovation Journal is a celebration of HP’s culture of invention and innovation— Ticky Thakkar blending the heart and energy of a startup with the brains and muscle of a Fortune 50 Contributor company. Each issue will shine a spotlight on the intersection of our people and their ideas; on the notable new technologies and experiences that we’re developing; and on the key industry trends that we will drive through innovation. In this issue, we’re also looking at global trends that are shaping our efforts even as our work is shaping the future. We’re Jos Brenkel passionate about staying ahead of the curve, and ensuring our partners’ and customers’ Contributor success. As we celebrate HP Labs’ 50th anniversary, we also celebrate the momentum and opportunity we find in innovating for this fast-changing world. We want to hear from you!

Social and environmental responsibility are essential to our business strategy and our value proposition for customers. They are also at the heart of an obligation we all share to help create a sustainable global society. I look forward to helping advance HP's commitment to making a positive difference in the world through our people; our portfolio of products, services and expertise; and our partnerships. Our workforce of nearly 325,000 talented people is our greatest asset. Through their commitment, HP achieves extraordinary results both in our business and in our communities. With their expertise and innovative drive, we're pursuing a vision of corporate success that goes beyond just creating value for shareholders—we are helping to create a better world. We're also using our position as the world's largest information technology (IT) company to help address some of society's most pressing challenges. Our strategy is to use our portfolio and expertise to tackle complex issues—such as improving energy efficiency, enhancing the quality and accessibility of education, and making healthcare more affordable, accessible, and effective. We approach these issues in a holistic way, stretching beyond quick fixes and piecemeal solutions. We recognize that these problems are too big for any single organization to address alone, so we're teaming up with partners worldwide to find solutions. We cultivate relationships with diverse stakeholders, such as industry peers, governments, and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs).
