Once again, vExpert second half application is now open with closing on June 23rd and announcement on July 11th.

This time is different with significant changes in the application itself and its benefits. Let’s recap a little about vExpert program.

The VMware vExpert program is VMware’s global evangelism and advocacy program. The program is designed to put VMware’s marketing resources towards your advocacy efforts. Promotion of your articles, exposure at our global events, co-op advertising, traffic analysis, and early access to beta programs and VMware’s roadmap. The awards are for individuals, not companies, and last for one year. Employees of both customers and partners can receive the awards. In the application, we consider various community activities from the previous year activities in determining who gets awards. We look to see that not only were you active but are still active in the path you chose to apply for.
