Cisco Live to draw 3,000 professionals

Cisco Live! 2011, a major networking forum scheduled to be held in April in Bahrain, will be bigger than the last year’s event, the company said.

Under the patronage of HRH Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince of Bahrain, and developed in collaboration with the government of Bahrain, Cisco Live! 2011 will take place at the Bahrain International Circuit in Sakhir, from April 10 to 13.
 
Industry professionals can connect with more than 3,000 key technical and business decision makers among their peers from across Middle East, Africa and Asia at the event.
 
Offering four distinct event programs with a mix of high-level visionary insights and deep-dive technical education, Cisco Live! Bahrain 2011 is a great opportunity to help transform the way every company connects, collaborates and communicates, said a statement.
 
Attendees will gain insights into the emerging technologies and trends -- such as cloud computing, data center virtualisation and business video -- that will revolutionise how companies can do business and stay competitive in the current economic climate.
 
Offering networking, technical seminars, service provider and IT management programs and more than 250 technical sessions across the event delivered by world-class Cisco and Cisco partner experts, Cisco Live! Bahrain will develop the delegates’ strategic and technical expertise, fostering creative solutions to economic, technology and business challenges, it said.

Attendees can see the World of Solutions exhibition for  a firsthand view of the latest Cisco technologies through the live demos, meet with Cisco engineers, and discuss networking issues or design challenges with one of Cisco’s experts in  a design clinic.
