Tagged “Breaking down the wall of communication;” The event is aimed at addressing the business benefits of the effective application of Cisco Video conferencing, WebEx, Internet Protocol (IP) telephony and digital media signage as it relates to the peculiar oil and gas sector of our business environment.
Speaking on the event, Ifeanyi Ikoro, Eastern Regional Manager, Resourcery, noted that as the oil and gas workforce becomes more mobile, business executives are beginning to appreciate the benefits and growing impact of video as an integral component of the development of their organizations. It’s a known fact that today’s laptops, desktops and mobile devices have at least one built-in camera.
Ikoro said; “whether you are an indigenous or international oil and gas company, new to video, or growing your information technology infrastructure to support the use of video as an effective business tool, this meeting provides you a veritable opportunity to see and test how this is applicable to your business environment. With competent professionals from Cisco and Resourcery, we aim to fully explore some of the technical applications of these business solutions as it affects our local businesses here in Nigeria.”
“The Cisco video conferencing solution that started out as a technology that would alter the way we meet has evolved into something much more. It is transforming the very way that organizations do business. Forever changing how petroleum rig operator in the Jubilee Oilfield at Cape Three Points in the Western Region of Ghana seeks subject matter expertise from an engineer in Nigeria.” He added.
Gbenga Adanlawo, Business Solution Manager, (voice and video) said; “we recognize the shift in global work practices which also affects how we do business here in Nigeria. We also know that technology needs to evolve to allow people communicate and collaborate in a more social, more virtual, more mobile, and more visual way. That is why we are providing this opportunity for our oil and gas sector customers to experience how seamless business video communication can enhance their internal and external service delivery.”
Mr. Jideofor Onwuemelu, Cisco’s Territory Business manager said the time is ripe for the oil and gas sector to fully embrace the benefits that Cisco’s Video Collaboration suite of services has to offer. With Cisco’s video conferencing solution suite, local offices can easily integrate video with their workplace tools thereby transforming their business environment. No doubt video transforms how we access our phone books as well as enhance the way we relate with our colleagues, customers and suppliers.
He added that; “We are very confident that at the end of the business session, our customers would be able to appreciate the offerings of this video architecture including the enhancement of employees productivity, reduction in travel cost and effective collaboration to drive growth. They would also tap into the universal power of TelePresence to unify their supply chain, provide highly engaged customer service, train remote teams, and improve employee engagement. What this means is that your businesses can begin to think beyond the boardroom.”
