With Partner Velocity, Partner Summit, and Cisco Live under our belts, we’re sad to say “goodbye” to this year’s conference season.
It was tons of fun getting to meet so many partners in person during the events, and the Cisco Channels team is looking forward to seeing all of you again next year.
But before we do, we wanted to share a full recap from Cisco Live! 2012, starting with our favorite photos.

No, you’re not having a déjà vu moment. The San Diego Convention Center was a popular spot for events this year.

17,000 in-person attendees! And almost half were first-time attendees.

Demo time during Chairman and CEO John Chambers’ keynote on day two of Cisco Live.

Cisco CTO Padmasree Warrior discusses the Cisco Open Network Environment (Cisco ONE).
