Overview

The Commercial Channel Advisory Board (CCAB) is a select committee of senior executives from Cisco and its key Tier-2 partners. Launched by Cisco in June 2004, CCAB is an important initiative designed to drive collective thought leadership in the Commercial marketplace and evolve its strategic partnerships so that the Cisco partner community is continually positioned for success.

CCAB meetings, held approximately twice a year, bring together up to 40 of the top Asia Pacific Tier-2 partners each time. During these meetings, we address critical topics and solutions for the Commercial market and work together to formulate more effective strategies that shape business decisions, products and services.

To date, CCAB remains an unrivalled platform for knowledge sharing and networking at a strategic level across the Asia Pacific region.
