For Cisco Customers:

The Cisco Corporate Communications team is constantly looking for new ways to work with Cisco customers to raise industry awareness and visibility about innovative Cisco technology applications that help organizations thrive.

At Cisco Live 2008, there will be opportunities for customers to share their compelling technology-based stories through case study presentations and also through meetings with highly-influential business and technology-focused press and analysts-national and international. Customers will also have the opportunity to meet with Cisco business executives and other Cisco experts to gather valuable insight about Cisco's technology strategy and roadmap.

This will be an excellent opportunity for select companies to increase visibility as technology leaders in specific industry segments and to promote their organization's messages to key press and industry analysts. Customers will also gain valuable insights and information from technology experts in attendance about business trends facing the IT industry.
