For Webex partners, there was no better place to be than at Cisco Live in Las Vegas, where you got a front-row seat to Cisco’s vision for the future and experienced the next generation of apps and integrations that will transform our industry and our world.
Are you ready? Let’s go!
The keynotes and innovation talks explored every aspect of the Cisco vision, diving into the latest solutions in network security, sustainability, hybrid work, and more – all of which are increasingly powered by generative AI.
“We want to do great things with AI in responsible ways,” said Chair and CEO Chuck Robbins during the event keynote, to “help you drive growth, accelerate innovation, and simplify your experience.”
Powerful Webex AI capabilities
AI capabilities lie at the heart of Cisco’s enablement of hybrid work, and Webex is leading the way in this new phase in the evolution of the workplace, helping companies reimagine both their workspaces and the way their people do work.
Cisco’s purpose-built devices are “loaded up with AI capabilities,” said Jeetu. These include audio and video intelligence that promotes greater inclusion and well-being, as well as natural language and analytics capabilities.
“We don’t keep AI capabilities to ourselves,” said Jeetu Patel, Cisco’s EVP & GM, Security & Collaboration. “We open it up to our ecosystem” so that everybody benefits from partner solutions and platforms.
Webex partners are right in the middle of this next stage in hybrid work, with apps and integrations that enable customers to be more connected and productive while nurturing creativity.
