TEMPE, Ariz., Nov. 30, 2018 – Insight Enterprises today announced that it is the recipient of three Cisco^® Partner Summit America Geographical Region awards in the Americas region for Commercial Partner of the Year, Social Responsibility Partner of the Year, and U.S. South GES Partner of the Year. Cisco declared the winners Nov. 13 during its annual partner conference in Las Vegas.

Awarded to channel partners who rise to business challenges, the Cisco Partner Summit Global awards recognize superior business practices and reward best-in-class methodologies.

As one of Cisco’s top Americas commercial partners and U.S. South GES partners, Insight was recognized for strong growth across Cisco architectures, products and services, and for opening new areas of total addressable market. A Cisco Gold Certified Partner, Insight maintains more than 900 Cisco certifications and hundreds of data center technicians to help businesses optimize their IT.

“Undergoing IT transformation can be a complex process, and businesses have come to rely on increased productivity and greater collaboration when they pair Cisco’s network technology with Insight’s Cloud and Data Center Transformation solutions,” said Bob Kane, senior vice president of product marketing, Insight. “Our more than 20-year partnership with Cisco makes for a meaningful connection that inspires innovation and efficiency through next-generation infrastructure.”

In earning the Americas Social Responsibility Partner of the Year, Cisco saluted Insight for its giving role as a good corporate citizen leading with its values of Hunger, Heart and Harmony. Insight’s annual Reach and Noble Cause programs connect children through technology-driven grants to Make-A-Wish, Ronald McDonald House Charities, the Boys & Girls Club of America and other in-market charities. As part of its giving, Insight enlisted Cisco’s support in March when it surprised 13 college-bound teenagers from the Boys & Girls Club of Arizona with new laptops.

“Cisco is proud to work together with leading partners to drive the digital transformation, delivering powerful solutions that generate customer success,” said Rick Snyder, senior vice president, Americas Partner Organization at Cisco. “It is an honor to recognize Insight with a Cisco Partner Summit Geo-Region award as both Commercial Partner of the Year and Social Responsibility Partner of the Year, further underscoring its outstanding accomplishments in the Americas.”
