How is Cisco changing people’s life?
This
time I had the opportunity to visit Cisco a successful foreign invested company,
located in Songdo area in South Korea is a hub of economic and education in
progress. The first thing you see when you arrive at Cisco’s global center of
excellence is the Cisco smart connected video wall, it delivers visual presentations and allows
tele-presence connections that can be controlled trough gesture based
interactions.
The
exhibition area at Cisco catches the visitor’s attention for the high tech and
IT developments they have, but something that really catch my attention during
the conference was that hardly any of the products of the company was
mentioned, instead the “Why” of the company, the reason of Cisco to exist was
explained first, Cisco’s Vision is about Smart + Connected communities.
The explanation was inside out. Cisco
connects everything with its technology, and now this kind of connection is
called the Internet of Everything but what is the internet of everything
about?
Cisco
executes its Vision in a way that solves problems, save energy, makes working
productive and connects everything: people, things and data. Cisco’s technology
are used in home, Schools, offices, hospitals and public places, helping people
to work closer together and enable business to provide better services and
products and connecting everyone into smart connected communities to provide
greater safety, quality life and enhance productivity and environmental
sustainability.
The value of internet for everything lies in the value of
connections among people, data and things, not simply in the number of things
connected. Below we have examples of the value of connections.
Education With the present technology students connect
with each other regardless of where they are in the world. Taking a look at political process with
elections in two different countries enables students to have a richer
understanding of their own system because now they can compare it with
something else.

energy.

Living. Development

power system, fire alarm system, for reducing the maintenance cost of the
building. In the homes people can control with the touch of a button the energy
use and adjust everything from lights to air-conditioning.
