Now Taste Wine Leveraging Cisco TelePresence


To showcase the effect of Cisco TelePresence, Orange Business Services and Cisco held a virtual wine tasting event via Cisco TelePresence.

 

 

Enterprise customers and prospects from six North American cities, as well as Santiago, Chile, attended the event, led by wine expert Pascual Ibanez . Attendees discussed and tasted selections from Vina Concha y Toro wine, the second largest winemaker in the world and an Orange Business Services customer with headquarters in Chile.

Cisco TelePresence harnesses the power and speed of today’s network to provide a fully immersed and life-sized virtual collaborative experience in high-definition. Attendees for the wine tasting engaged with one another about the color, taste and vintages in a virtual space that created the appearance of everyone occupying the same room even though they were all situated hundreds or even thousands of miles away from each other.

Cisco TelePresence provides the perfect forum for preserving the personal and collaborative nature of face-to-face interactions regardless of location or distance, “said Diana Einterz, senior vice president, Americas, Orange Business Services”. As this event demonstrates, its applications stretch far beyond simple business meetings. We envision Cisco TelePresence being used to launch new products, coordinate logistics between partners and suppliers, ensure business continuity following a disaster, and serve as a guard against runaway travel expenses”.

Orange Business Services is at the forefront in pushing

 

Cisco TelePresence as a standard next-generation service for enterprises.
