Panel Discussions

Sometimes the best way to learn about new technologies is through an open discussion that includes different perspectives.  Panel discussions give you the opportunity to hear a wide range of views on important topics from people inside and outside Cisco — including other vendors, customers, and industry experts.

Cisco Lives’ panel discussion format focuses on the big-picture concepts and ideas that promise to transform the way we communicate and collaborate. The agenda includes business and technology experts weighing in on topics such as Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), Big Data, Cloud computing, and integration challenges.
