After two extremely dense and informative days of Cisco's analyst program at Cisco Live! 2025 which took place in San Diego, Leonard Lee of neXt Curve and Maribel Lopez of Lopez Research sat down in the analyst forum plenary ballroom to tape what was supposed to be a greeting video to Jo Peterson, a mutual friend who has been on the neXt Curve podcast. Hi, Jo!
