Are you headed to Orlando for InfoComm 2017? We’re packing up our favorite collaboration demos and heading to the Orange County Convention Center to share how you can use our tech to simplify the way your teams work.

Working together should be simple. The technology you use to collaborate should be simple, too. You’re most effective when you can focus on tasks, not tools. Join us to see how Cisco collaboration solutions simplify teamwork and face-to-face interactions, from the browser to the boardroom. Learn how you can deliver user experiences with consistent, compelling technology.
