With our last Borderless Challenge, more than 3,000 people jumped into the ring to participate; 30 individuals got all the answers right. And one lucky guy—Kevin B, a network engineer from Portland—earned a trip to Hawaii. Congratulations, Kevin!
In our newest challenge, we focus on Security and Video. Running from June 7 to June 28, the top prize winner will earn a trip to Cisco LIVE/Networkers in his/her choice of Acapulco, Mexico; Lima, Peru; or London. Other prizes include a Flip video camera or a Linksys Wireless Router.
To help us out, Jimmy Ray Purser and Robb Boyd will be dishing up a snack-sized edition of Techwise TV. They’ll provide an overview of three of our latest borderless innovations: ISE, a new centralized policy engine; Cisco Prime, which provides unified wired and wireless management; and Medianet, which automates the network for enhanced video and voice.
Watch this video to learn more about how you can participate.
Next, you’ll watch a mini TechWise TV episode focused on security and video
After that, you’ll watch another quick video. That one will feature our hero, Ike, applying his knowledge of borderless solutions to save the day.
And finally, you’ll take the challenge. That means responding to questions that test your knowledge of what you’ve learned through watching the two videos.
There’s a lot happening at our 15th Partner Summit—big news announcements for partners, not to mention keynotes, business breakout sessions, executive chats, and parties, too.

Can you believe it? We’re less than a week away from Cisco’s Partner Summit! Many of you will likely be attending the event virtually—if you haven’t yet registered, please visit the Virtual Partner Summit registration page to sign up (it’s free). The virtual event runs March 1 through March 3.
But maybe you’re wondering, “all right, what’s so cool about this Virtual Partner Summit thing?”and “What exactly do you do inside a virtual event?”
Glad you asked! Join me on a quick tour of Virtual Partner Summit (or VPS for short) so you can find out…
When you enter for the first time, the friendly face of none other than Edison Peres Cisco’s SVP of WW Channels will greet you. He will provide some background and give you a quick rundown of what you’ll find inside VPS and help you navigate the environment.
