On Thursday November 29th, 2018 we hosted Seattle Cisco Connect event in Bell Harbor Convention Center. Overall it was a very crowded event full of technical sessions.
I had the awesome opportunity to do the opening of the event and introduce our keynote speaker.
The opening was about our Bridge to Possible brand campaign and how Cisco is committed to impact the live of 1B people in the next 7 years.
Cisco won’t slow down on this initiative and our goal as a company is to be the bridge not only in technology, but also in other aspects of life so we can help others and give back to our communities and the entire world.
Please take a look at the video of “The bridge to Possible” campaign:

After the opening session I introduced our Keynote speaker, Nick Biasini who is a threat research engineer at Talos and he did a great job explaining all the risks and problems the world is facing today with cybercrimes.
After Nick’s session all the attendees break out to the different sessions we were offering in Data Center & Cloud, Security, Collaboration and Enterprise Networking and I prepared to present on Software Defined Access with the session:
Ready to automate and secure your Campus Network? Let’s take a look to DNA-Center
The session was full of engineers and the interaction of Q&A was very intense and well received by our customers! Lot of questions to answer around how we can implement SDA in a brownfield and greenfield deployment, roadmap, production phases, why one protocol or another, etc.
At the end of the day we had a great happy hour sponsored by one of our partners and it was a nice moment to close the event socializing, sharing the highlight of the sessions and laughing with our customers.
Thanks to our customers, our teams and partners for organizing and hosting such a great conference.
See you on my next article, thanks!
