WWT's New B2B Innovation Platform Puts Cisco Partnership in a League of its Own
In this news
WWT honored to receive prestigious Cisco Partner Summit Global award, recognizing us as Architectural Excellence Partner of the Year for Data Center.
It's exciting times here at World Wide Technology (WWT).
We've reimagined how IT innovates by opening up one of the most robust technology ecosystems in the world — the Advanced Technology Center (ATC) — to customers and partners through a revamped wwt.com. By completely reconceptualizing our website as a B2B Innovation Platform, we're delivering unrivaled value for IT practitioners and decision-makers alike through an array of launchable labs, workshops, briefings, assessments, trainings and more.
As excited as we are about the new platform, we're even more eager to see what innovations trusted partners like Cisco can generate with it. While WWT customers have had access to the latest Cisco technologies in the ATC for years, Cisco sales and engineering teams now have streamlined access to accelerated learning opportunities and burgeoning tech communities focused on creating force multipliers of knowledge, speed and agility — all of which can be harnessed to drive deeper adoption of Cisco and other foundational technologies.
