The ProtoComp began with a high-energy, two-day hackathon, where women from across Australia and New Zealand gathered at Innovation Central Brisbane to collaborate and generate ideas around a crucial provocation set by Cisco CTO Carl Solder: How might Cisco lead the way for digital inclusion in Australia and New Zealand by 2030?<\/p><p>During this intensive hackathon, participants brainstormed ideas, and developed early-stage solutions to address digital inclusion. The event concluded with each team pitching their concepts to Cisco\u2019s senior leadership team, including Ben Dawson, Cisco Vice President for Australia and New Zealand; Sam Gerner; Mary Armstrong; and Harsha Hewapathirane. The hackathon set the foundation for three months of continued collaboration, as the teams now work remotely across Australia and New Zealand to refine their ideas.<\/p><p>The program will culminate on 4 December in an online showcase, where the Women of Cisco cohort will present their polished digital prototypes to Cisco\u2019s senior leaders. The The ICB Women of Cisco Top Female Talent program, made possible through the collaboration of the Women of Cisco Committee\u2014including Michelle Shalhoub, Brione Smink, Lucia Oles, Nicole Kaniowski, Pam Fleming, and Linda Chrysoglou\u2014reflects our commitment to nurturing talent, promoting creativity, and enabling these exceptional women to make a lasting impact in tech.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46d364d elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"46d364d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9e555d4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9e555d4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #37c0c6;\"><strong>Celebrating a Culture of Empowerment and Inclusion<\/strong><\/span><br \/>At Innovation Central Brisbane, we believe in championing women and supporting their journey to leadership and influence in the digital era.
