Here are just a few things that are happening at the McCormick Center in Chicago, Illinois on 16^th and 17^th November:

• A Cisco booth focused on the collaboration, security and network convergence we are bringing to the production environment, staffed by Cisco thought leaders Booth #239.

• A four-way Cisco, Rockwell, Panduit and Fluke booth showing the power of a broader partnership bringing all aspects of network convergence together.

• 3 joint Cisco-Rockwell presentations on key network convergence topics plus Cisco Speakers at the Global Machine Builders (OEM) and Food and Beverage Forums

• Opportunity to meet Cisco and Rockwell thought leaders and technical experts throughout

• Other Executive and Technical events and networking opportunities
  

Cisco and Rockwell have been working together for some time now to bring the converged network architecture to customers saving them cost and providing substantial business and technical benefits. The key trend in this space is convergence:  integrating operations and production into the Enterprise:

• Networks and technologies are converging around standard IP (Internet Protocol)…

• IT and operations are converging

• Cisco brings key capabilities around security and collaboration to the islands of production. Cisco and Rockwell are uniquely positioned to make this trend happen as the leaders in IT and Rockwell as the experts in operations and production.

Our partnership with Rockwell Automation is aimed at increasing Cisco’s relevancy with manufacturers by focusing on two of their key business process:  operations and production
