The partnership

Cisco has been the engine of the Internet for over 30 years. Founded in 1984, and headed by CEO Chuck Robbins, the company is based in San Jose. It operates worldwide, and reported sales of $49.3 billion (FY 2020) in its last financial year. Driving the evolution of networking technologies; backed by continued investment in talent, research and development, partnerships and open innovation; Cisco is completely redesigning what networking can do. This will provide a smarter, more secure platform in order to meet the challenges of digital transformation today, and in the future.

Seeing digitalisation as the means to create a more inclusive future for everyone, and to tackle the enormous challenges facing the planet, Cisco is relying on technology to make a positive impact and promote opportunities through a wealth of initiatives. One of these is the Cisco Networking Academy Programme, which the company launched in 1997, and which has so far enabled millions of people – over 240,000 in Italy – to acquire basic and specialist digital skills.

The partnership between Tim, Noovle and Cisco will make it possible to offer innovative, integrated, end-to-end solutions to large companies, SMEs, and in public administration. Working with customers to create the workplace of the future, in a constant process of innovation based on resilience and security, Cisco Systems, a world leader in networking, has developed a broad portfolio of end-to-end and integrated solutions to address the many challenges posed by digital technology. In particular, Cisco is able to provide all the digital architecture necessary to support business operations, ranging from data centres to collaboration. In addition, Noovle has made the security of its customers a priority. From the experience of its partnership with Cisco, it has come to see security and cyber security as the starting point in the design of each service offered.
