General Motors Signs Innovative Deal with Cisco

I’m excited to announce that we have deepened our relationship with General Motors.  This quarter, as John talked about on our Q3 FY14 earnings call, we closed a first-of-its-kind, multi-year deal to license Cisco’s software portfolio to GM.

This innovative licensing agreement involving all of our software – and hardware, where needed – will give GM greater speed and flexibility to drive business value.  So, for example, when GM needs to increase their collaboration solutions across the company they have access to our full suite of products to do that. Going forward, Cisco and GM will continue to partner to deliver on GM’s business goals up to and including the Internet of Everything.

Cisco is proud to work with GM and other large enterprises to help them achieve their goals and overcome their biggest challenges.  We realize that every company must now be a technology company and we are thrilled and excited that GM is taking a huge, innovative step with Cisco as a partner to better serve their customers, partners and employees around the world.
