What is Cisco Networkers and what is the World of Solutions? Cisco Networkers is Cisco's largest customer event of the year. Now in its 17th year, this annual customer conference is the one opportunity for thousands of attendees to get the latest and most comprehensive training on Cisco products, technologies, services, and end-to-end business solutions, as well as take advantage of exceptional professional networking. These technically focused purchasing influencers are a mix of long-time Cisco devotees and new Cisco customers. The World of Solutions is an interactive learning environment and exhibit area within Cisco Networkers. Attendees can actively evaluate Cisco products and solutions, giving Cisco partners the opportunity to meet, educate, and influence thousands of qualified prospects in a matter of days. The World of Solutions makes a difference in real-world purchasing decisions. The Cisco exhibition booth, Cisco Challenge, and Partner Solutions Theater are also located within the World of Solutions. How do I confirm my company's participation in Cisco Networkers 2006 and World of Solutions?

My company does not have a current partnership with Cisco, but it is a sponsored organization of a Cisco Learning Partner or Cisco Learning Solutions Partner.

Sponsored organizations of a Cisco Learning Partner or a Cisco Learning Solutions Partner may be invited to participate in the sponsoring partner’s booth, but are not allowed to have an individual presence within the event.

Can we participate in Cisco Networkers 2006 and World of Solutions? Sponsored organizations of a Cisco Learning Partner or Cisco Learning Solutions Partner that also have a current partnership directly with Cisco may participate in Cisco Networkers 2006 and World of Solutions. However, that company may only promote the product or solution for which it has a partnership with Cisco. The sponsored organization may not promote the offering of Cisco training within its individual booth. Sponsored organizations may promote Cisco training only in their sponsoring partner’s booth.
