Cisco said that its Casablanca and Tunis offices have become the first business premises in Morocco and Tunisia to offer Cisco TelePresence exchanges.
The company said that Cisco TelePresence technology offers a live, face-to-face experience that enables people from different offices and cities around the world to meet virtually using the power of the network.
Cisco TelePresence meeting participants can share content, create high-quality video recordings of events, consult with experts, and deliver powerful personalised services, all using the network for an immersive in-person experience.
In Morocco and Tunisia, Cisco TelePresence technology offers more than a virtual meeting experience for businesses. The Cisco TelePresence infrastructure is for applications of telemedicine, health care professionals, and educational establishments.
The company said that setting up a Cisco TelePresence meeting is as simple as making a phone call, and when participants sit down at the conference table in a Cisco TelePresence room, other participants appear to be sitting across the table.
Hassan Bahej, general manager of Cisco Morocco, said: "In today’s climate, when companies are looking at better ways to conduct business efficiently whilst also keeping a firm control on travel costs, Cisco TelePresence technology offers the perfect solution.
"Cisco employees in Casablanca are already enjoying the benefits and cost savings that a Cisco TelePresence solution offers, and we aim to also utilise this installation in our Casablanca offices as a pilot to allow our business partners and customers across the region the opportunity to experience the power of Cisco TelePresence technology.
"We are confident that in the very near future many more organizations in Morocco and across North Africa will be deploying the Cisco TelePresence solution."
Adel Dahmani, general manager of Cisco Tunisia, said: "Cisco employees in Tunis are already enjoying the benefits and cost savings that a Cisco TelePresence solution offers, and we aim to also utilise this installation in our Tunis offices as a pilot to allow our business partners and customers across the region the opportunity to experience the power of Cisco TelePresence technology."
