It’s a golden age for media and entertainment service providers. The rise of IP and cloud technologies has made it easier to increase audience engagement through more and new forms of content. With these new technologies, content can be delivered across devices and into new environments.
But organizations need help implementing these technologies and using them effectively.
At Cisco, we’re helping to power new opportunities to create, manage and distribute digital content. This is being done through our intelligent and secure platforms that help media and entertainment providers increase revenue and profitability.
To capitalize on these new opportunities, it’s essential that the implementation of IP and cloud technology is industrialized and repeatable across industry. It’s important, too, that operations are standardized and measurable, so that organizations can get the most business value out of their technology investments.
For partners, there’s a huge opportunity to help with this transition. To do so means that training and skillsets have to keep up with the technology.
Cisco is committed to enabling content, media and service providers to thrive in the digital age. And that means delivering disruptive solutions for networking, multi-cloud, security, data and collaboration. Our goal is to equip professionals with the right skills and expertise to addressing the IP skills gap in the broadcast space.
