An Exciting Educational Lineup: Day 1
On day 1 of our virtual event, our panel will be discussing the state of remote working today, and the trends impacting the workplace (including COVID-19). We’ll be hosting Cisco Managing Director of Cloud, Craig Decker, and RingCentral UK&I Manager, Steven Rafferty.
During the first day, we’ll be exploring the influence on the market now that the number of remote workers is growing as a result of the pandemic. You’ll learn about the impact that video has had on the marketplace during COVID-19, and how video conferencing tools and team collaboration apps are becoming essential to the modern marketplace.
We’ll look at the huge increase in demand, and what vendors are doing to handle the need for more capacity. We’ll also have a panel discussion about implementing remote working strategies. Experts involved with this panel include Worldwide Sales and Strategy Manager, Mark Needham, from Cisco. RingCentral VP of Product Management, Ritu Mukherjee will also be present, alongside Mark Strassman, SVP and General Manager of UC&C for GoTo LogMeIn.
You’ll be able to learn about common implementation challenges when deploying remote tech, and whether small and large businesses are facing the same threats.
