With approximately 55,000 attendees gathered for the event, our team at Cisco had the awesome privilege and opportunity to reconnect with our customers, partners, and industry ecosystem after a two-year hiatus. Like any family reunion, our time at the show was filled with great discussions, laughs, hope for the future, and reflection on how far we’ve come.
The most successful businesses are often the ones that aren’t content to simply play by the rules. At Cisco, we call that “performing and transforming” as a partner. Cisco partner AmpThink isn’t just playing the game, it’s redefining it for the entertainment venue industry—and it’s winning.
Learn about some of the actionable plans you can start working on—right now—to begin your Partner Transformation journey. There's no need to transform everything at once. Here are three ways Cisco can help you get started: training via the Cisco DevNet sandbox, a focus on customer success through the Cisco Lifecycle Advantage Program, and connecting with potential co-selling partners through the all-new Partner Connect feature on the Partner Experience Portal.

Recently, I had the pleasure of participating in a tech webinar panel with HYPE Sports, The New Game Changers of Sports Media & Broadcasting.
