In other news, at HP Imagine 2026, HP Inc. (NYSE: HPQ) announced new AI-powered devices, security innovations and intelligent workflow solutions designed to help businesses and individuals thrive in an AI-driven future of work.
“As we look ahead, the Future of Work is about making work simpler in a world that's getting more complex," said Bruce Broussard, interim CEO, HP Inc. "At HP, we're focused on using AI to create more connected experiences that help organizations move faster and help people do their best work. At HP Imagine 2026, we're showing how that comes to life through solutions that work together, securely and seamlessly, so our customers can do their best work wherever work happens."
Empowering People to Do Their Best Work
Despite rapid digital transformation, friction persists. According to HP's 2025 Work Relationship Index, only 20% of workers have a healthy relationship with work and 22% experience monthly technology issues that disrupt focus. The right technology changes that.
Employees equipped with the right tools are twice as likely to feel positive about their work and report a 33-point improvement in overall experience scores. AI is amplifying that impact at scale: HP's internal deployment of AI PCs drove a 16% productivity keeping employees productive and businesses moving.
On-Device Intelligence, Right Where Work Happens
To further reduce complexity across the modern workplace, HP introduced HP IQ bringing local, on-device intelligence and proximity-based connectivity together with enterprise manageability to unlock new levels of employee productivity and collaboration across HP AI PCs and workplace devices.
HP IQ will debut on the next generation of HP EliteBook X G2 AI PCs and initial on-device AI features experiences will include:
- Ask IQ: Responds to text and voice inputs, surfacing contextual answers and guidance.
- Analyze: Helps employees users interact with personal files (including PDF, TXT, DOC, PPT) to get summaries and actionable insights.
- Notes & Knowledge: Keeps a running record of interactions so employees can pick up where they left off and organizes notes so they can be searched and shared more easily.
- Meeting Agent: Quickly captures ideas or records notes during a meeting without forcing app switching, helping participants stay focused.
HP IQ can be configured through the HP Workforce Experience Platform (WXP) and deployed through WXP or other enterprise management tools like Microsoft Intune.
Friction-Free Collaboration Across the HP Ecosystem
As part of HP IQ, HP introduced HP NearSense, a new spatial intelligence that helps devices discover, connect and collaborate, simplifying transitions between tasks and environments. HP NearSense helps people move work between nearby devices more easily by enabling real-time sharing of context and capabilities, powering experiences like:
- The easiest PC-to-PC file sharing solution offering the most secure experience — allowing users to drag and drop documents, images and presentations to nearby colleagues instantly.
- Single-click join — enabling seamless, one-click options for joining conference room meetings.
Over time, HP plans to extend NearSense capabilities are planned to expand across the HP ecosystem to HP Poly video conferencing solutions, print devices, desktops, workstations, peripherals and more.
