Cisco is the critical infrastructure for the AI era.

Dear Rupert,

Keeping visibility, performance, and security aligned gets harder as AI traffic spreads across data centers, clouds, and the edge—and AI agents don't sleep, stop, or slow down. Cisco is built for this pace and for what comes next. The goal isn't just to deploy AI, but to scale it reliably and securely without adding tool sprawl, blind spots, or more manual troubleshooting.

Join us at Ai4 2026, August 4-6, at The Venetian in Las Vegas, to see how Cisco delivers the critical infrastructure for the AI era to help you power, secure, and optimize your operations.

Join Jeetu Patel, Cisco’s President and Chief Product Officer, in a fireside chat with Matt Egan, Senior Business and Economy Reporter at CNN. As AI shifts from simple chatbots to autonomous agents, inferencing grows distributed across data centers, clouds, and devices. They'll discuss what it takes to build, secure, and run infrastructure for the agentic era, with new approaches to networking, security, and operations for scaling AI.
