The DevNet Zone is three weeks away, and is shaping up to be stuffed to the rafters with great technical information for you. We have our big main theater plus two classrooms, the sit-down hands-on learning labs, interactive workshops, demo areas and more. This year we've added a new learning tool, our interactive panels.
These panels bring in Cisco thought leaders and industry executives to discuss important industry and technology issues and help you understand what they are and where they're headed. These panels are some of our most popular offerings. In Berlin, we have seven panels scheduled:
