Cisco and Our Partners: Moving Forward as One
What an incredible week at Partner Summit 2024! The energy was electric, both in person and through our digital experience, as we came together to shape the future of technology. Whether through the global session keynotes, business impact sessions, extensive 1:1 meetings or networking opportunities, our goal was to create an event that was engaging, inspiring and relevant to you and your business. While your initial feedback has been tremendous, I want to hear more. event survey that has been sent to those of who you attended in person. Your input directly shapes how we move Forward as one.
Cisco 360 Partner Program
This year at Partner Summit, we unveiled one of our biggest announcements to date – the new Cisco 360 Partner Program. The Cisco 360 Partner Program was created in response to the radically different ways our customers consume technology and the innovation that helps them modernize their infrastructure, power AI workloads and maintain security and resilience.
Cisco and our partners have an opportunity and a responsibility to deliver exponential customer value in a world being transformed by AI. The Cisco 360 Partner Program represents a structured approach to differentiating partner value and driving customer preference. We want to recognize partners’ strengths across industries and aligned to our portfolio – and this new program increases our ability to do that.
The Cisco 360 Partner Program was built with partners, for partners. With this new program, we are:
- Transforming partner success factors across our ecosystem toward an inclusive, holistic framework anchored to customer outcomes and growth.
- Elevating what it means to be a Cisco partner, increasing differentiated partner value proposition and driving customer awareness and preference.
- Upgrading the partner experience, simplifying across partner touch points and providing new ways for partners to plan and track performance across the ecosystem.
The program will launch on February 1, 2026, giving you plenty of time to prepare, and we have dedicated resources to support you through the transition.
