Meet the Team: Cisco Spaces is the intelligence layer that turns buildings into dynamic, data-driven environments. By connecting to Cisco’s global network of access points, sensors and cameras, Spaces delivers real-time insights and automation that help organizations run safer, smarter and more sustainable workplaces. Today, Spaces is one of Cisco’s fastest-growing platforms with more than twelve billion square feet of real estate digitized worldwide. As Cisco moves deeper into a software-first future, Spaces sits at the center of cloud, IoT, maps, analytics and AI. The platform brings together everything needed for a modern hybrid workplace. It provides live occupancy and utilization insights, indoor maps, bookings, visitor flows, environmental and air-quality data, people and asset visibility, and automated workflows that make operations more efficient. Customers manage entire portfolios of buildings, connect third-party solutions through our partner ecosystem, and use our APIs to build new use cases on top of the platform. Spaces is where large-scale cloud engineering, real-time data, AI and enterprise UX meet. We are a team that ships fast, innovates continuously and builds technology that genuinely changes how buildings function.
