Cisco at Ai4 2026

August 4-6 | Las Vegas, NV | Cisco Booth 1101 | Splunk Booth 624

The critical infrastructure for the AI era.

AI agents don't sleep, don't stop, and don't slow down. Neither does the complexity or risk they create. Cisco is built for this pace—delivering the infrastructure, security, observability, and intelligence you need to move at machine speed and scale, on a unified platform where autonomous infrastructure becomes operational reality. Join us at Ai4 to see it in action. Connect with Cisco experts in our booth, explore immersive demos and theater sessions on our latest solutions, and hear from Cisco President and Chief Product Officer Jeetu Patel in his keynote on scaling and securing agentic AI.

Critical infrastructure for the AI era: Scaling and securing agentic AI

Thursday, August 6 | 8:59-9:17 a.m. | The Venetian Expo Center, Hall A, Floor 2 

Jeetu Patel, President and Chief Product Officer, Cisco
Matt Egan, Senior Business and Economy Reporter, CNN 

As AI shifts from chatbots to autonomous agents, inferencing grows distributed across data centers, clouds, and devices. This discussion covers the infrastructure impact, with new approaches to networking, security, and operations for scaling AI.

Cisco Booth 1101

Stop by Cisco Booth 1101 to see how we build and secure your agentic infrastructure, run your agentic operations, and harness your data to act at machine speed.

Splunk Booth 624

Observe and optimize the performance, quality, cost, and security of your entire AI stack with the Splunk Observability Agent. Visit Splunk Booth 624 for a live demo. 

Theater sessions and in-booth activities

Join our 15-minute, expert-led sessions for thought leadership on the agentic era, with a LEGO® set given away at each session.

Don't miss our ice cream social, happening at select times throughout the event: Tuesday and Wednesday: 2–4 p.m. and Thursday: 1–3 p.m.

Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA

Build your agentic infrastructure

Built for agentic AI infrastructure, not adapted to it. Take an interactive tour of Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA. Explore full-stack, pre-validated building blocks—Cisco AI PODs, Cisco Unified Edge—integrating compute, networking, security, observability, and AI software, designed to accelerate enterprise time-to-production from day one.

AI networking from fabric to Kubernetes

Scale your agentic infrastructure

Your network shouldn't be a bottleneck—or a black box. See how Cisco AI networking extends seamlessly from the data center fabric into Kubernetes, giving network and platform teams unified visibility and control across the full stack, so GPU resources stay fully utilized and agentic workloads scale without friction. 

Protect models, agents, and infrastructure

Secure your agentic infrastructure

Cisco closes the patching gap in minutes, not months. Cisco Live Protect applies surgical compensating controls directly in the application path, keeping apps and networks running without interruption. Cisco AI Defense shields your AI initiatives from prompt injection and data leakage before they disrupt operations. The result: zero downtime, reduced operational risk and AI infrastructure you can scale with confidence. 

Cisco Cloud Control

Run your agentic operations

Managing infrastructure reactively is no longer enough. See how Cisco Cloud Control with Cisco AI Canvas brings your team and AI agents into a shared command center—single sign-in, unified topology, one view across every domain—where they investigate and resolve issues at machine speed, with humans in control. 

Cisco Data Fabric and Splunk Observability

Observe and optimize your AI stack

AI agents behave and fail in unpredictable ways. Learn how to evaluate and observe AI agent behavior to minimize hallucinations, prevent inaccurate outputs, and control token costs, while ensuring the reliability of the GPUs, vector databases, and infrastructure that power your AI applications.

The critical role of networking in enterprise AI success

The report, "No time to wait: The accelerating impact of AI on campus and branch networks" confirms that, alongside compute, the network is now a major factor in whether enterprise AI deployments succeed or fail.
