Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (HPE) is an American multinational information technology enterprise company, founded 1 November 2015 as part of the now-split Hewlett-Packard company.

Enterprise is a business-focused organization with four divisions: Enterprise Group, which works in servers, storage, networking, consulting and support; Services; Software; and Financial Services.

The split was structured so that the old Hewlett-Packard changed its name to HP Inc. and spun off Hewlett Packard Enterprise as a newly-created company. HP Inc., which retained the old HP's personal computer and printing business, retained the old HP's stock-price history and the original NYSE ticker symbol for Hewlett-Packard, while Enterprise trades under its own ticker symbol, "HPE." According to notes from 2015, HPE's revenue was slightly less than that of HP Inc.

Naming

The full name for the company is Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co., dropping the hyphen that previously existed between the "Hewlett" and "Packard" of the former Hewlett-Packard Company. During and since the separation many media outlets have incorrectly named the new organization, notably using "HP Enterprises"[1] or "HP Enterprise"[2][3]
