RIYADH - Cisco's Chairman and CEO John Chambers arrived in Saudi Arabia Monday to meet with Saudi government officials and strategic business partners in the Kingdom. Chambers has been a regular visitor to the Kingdom in his capacity as Executive Country sponsor over the past years.
During discussions with leading business representatives in the Kingdom, Chambers will highlight Cisco's continued commitment to collaborate with indigenous organizations and local government to help further accelerate development in information communications technology (ICT) energy, critical national infrastructure, healthcare, defense and national security, and the service provider market.
Chambers said "I am very encouraged by the technology advances that have taken place since my last visit. We have a highly skilled, professional and talented team committed to the success of the Kingdom and our customers. As more devices and people are connected on the network, we will continue to innovate and transform our business to meet the demands of our customers in Saudi Arabia. Business leaders in the Kingdom today want partners who can guide them through change and help shape their organizations for the future. The question high on their agenda's is how can all this connectivity help me grow my business, deliver better services and experiences, and open up new possibilities? The Internet of Everything will transform the way we live, work, and play and learn, and Cisco is right at the center."
Dr Tarig Enaya, Managing Director, Cisco, Saudi Arabia, said "the meetings that Mr. Chambers is hosting with some of the leading business leaders in the Kingdom will yield some useful discussions that will help define our agenda for the Kingdom for the remainder of 2013 and into 2014. Both Cisco and our strategic partners in Saudi Arabia are ready and willing to embrace the change that the next phase of the Internet will bring. I look forward to announcing some key new developments from Cisco here in Saudi Arabia that will help shape this change in the very near future."
During his visit to the Kingdom, Chambers will outline the phenomenal opportunities that are expected to be created for businesses and individuals as we enter into the era of the Internet of Everything (IoE). Cisco defines IoE as bringing together people, process, data, and things to make networked connections more relevant and valuable than ever before -- turning information into actions that create new capabilities, richer experiences, and unprecedented economic opportunity for businesses, individuals, and countries.
Cisco established a presence in Saudi Arabia in 1997.
