Cisco’s Global Transformation & Innovation Partner of the Year
as well as its U.S. Partner of the Year, in addition to winning
four complementary awards recognizing its excellence across

software. ePlus was also recognized for its ability to create new
ways for customers to consume Cisco technology, achieve positive
business outcomes and drive transformational solutions to
facilitate their digital journey.
ePlus achieved the U.S. Partner of the Year for adding
exceptional business value to customers by deploying new and

performance in one or more areas important to Cisco, including:

women’s lives by introducing diverse groups of middle school girls
to technology-focused career possibilities, with an emphasis on
cybersecurity and artificial intelligence. In addition to giving

experiences and hands-on examples of great opportunities, GRIT
strives to build confidence, encourage, inspire and empower
them.
