Cisco Launches 40 Communities Johannesburg: A New Chapter of Community-Led Transformation in South Africa

NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / August 11, 2026 / Cisco Systems Inc.

As part of my work at Cisco, I often emphasize the power of proximity and how true impact isn't delivered from a distance; it happens when we show up, listen, and align our global resources with the heartbeat of local communities. This is the foundation of our 40 Communities (40C) Initiative: bringing together four decades of trust, expertise, and innovation to engage, support, and invest in 40 communities around the world over 10 years.
