There is nothing as constant as change! What Parallels has been up to in 2025.
In this (awesome) session Chris will walk through what Parallels has been up to in 2025 and why they have taken the approach they have. He’ll discuss how application delivery has changed over time and how we should all architect for change or face being left down a ’dead-end'.

Deep-Dive: Mastering Hydra & Nerdio for Azure Virtual Desktop and Windows 365
Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) and Windows 365 have matured rapidly, but operational complexity, cost control, and scalability remain major challenges for enterprises.
In this deep-dive session, we will explore how Hydra and Nerdio Manager can be combined to create a highly automated, scalable, and cost-optimized EUC platform on Azure.
The session goes beyond basic setup and focuses on real-world operational patterns, automation strategies, and architectural decisions used in large-scale production environments.
Topics covered include:
- Designing host pool strategies for AVD & Windows 365 (Enterprise & Frontline)
- Advanced image lifecycle management with Hydra
- Intelligent scaling, power management, and cost governance with Nerdio
- Multi-tenant and enterprise governance models
- Handling GPU-accelerated workloads (vGPU, AI, and graphics)
- Common pitfalls, lessons learned, and best practices from real customer deployments
Attendees will leave with practical guidance they can apply immediately, whether they manage a single tenant or hundreds of customers.

EUC is not ready for AI Agents
EUC is not ready for AI Agents
EUC is not ready for AI Agents
AI agents are everywhere. OpenClaw just hit millions of installs. Every vendor is launching their "autonomous assistant."
Here's what they're not telling you: enterprise EUC environments are spectacularly unprepared for AI agents that can read your emails, browse your SharePoint, execute commands, and make decisions without asking permission.
This session covers:
- OpenClaw's documented security incidents and "going rogue" moments
- Tools like Anthropic's Cowork pushing automation boundaries
- Why your current access controls won't catch agent misbehavior
- The liability gap between "helpful automation" and "who authorized that?"
No vendor pitch. No "AI will solve everything" nonsense. Just an honest look at why rushing AI agents into production is a recipe for disaster.
Perfect for anyone who needs ammunition to push back on the "just turn on AI agents" crowd.
James O'Regan
James is a Product Marketing Manager and Community Lead at Liquidware, bringing 21 years of End User Computing (EUC) experience across the realities of desktops, VDI, and the day-to-day grind of keeping users productive.
He combines deep technical credibility with commercial storytelling: turning complex EUC challenges into clear messaging that resonates with IT teams, leaders, and partners.
He is active in the wider EUC community, regularly collaborating with peers across the industry and speaking at events such as E2EVC.
In February 2024, James and Gerjon Kunst launched an AI podcast: The Impact of AI: Explored. The goal is simple: cut through the hype, translate what’s real into plain language, and help IT and EUC professionals make better decisions about AI based on practical experience, not vendor noise.
15:30 - 16:00
The App-V endgame: Three Scenarios, One Decision.
This technical session demonstrates a production-ready, end-to-end workflow for Microsoft Intune app delivery using EtherApps Forge and EtherAssist. We begin by capturing the application without installation media in Forge to produce MSI, Win32 (.intunewin), and MSIX packages. Forge also generates a JSON manifest that serves as the source of truth for documentation and validation. EtherAssist ingests the manifest to create auditable documentation, surface actionable insights, and assist with troubleshooting. Finally, the EtherAssist browser extension guides admins step-by-step in Intune, uploading packages, creating Win32 detection rules, and configuring requirements, scope tags, and assignments (MSIX detection is native). Attendees leave with a repeatable, enterprise-grade process they can apply immediately.

Citrix SSO with Entra ID – Configuration, Lessons Learned, and Demo
Modern authentication is no longer optional. With Citrix’s native Microsoft Entra ID integration built on OpenID Connect (OIDC), organizations can eliminate legacy authentication dependencies and move toward a truly password-less experience.
In this session, we’ll break down what it really takes to implement Citrix Single Sign-On with Entra ID. You’ll learn how authentication flows differ across Entra ID joined and hybrid-joined machines, what on-premises components are still required, and how Kerberos objects factor into hybrid deployments.
We’ll go beyond documentation to examine architectural trade-offs, security implications, and real-world lessons learned from production implementations.
The session concludes with a live (or recorded) end-to-end demonstration showcasing password-less access using Citrix Workspace app and browser access
