Cisco Live Melbourne Exec Interview w/ Julie Canepa (Part 2)

In Part 2 of our Cisco exec series from Cisco Live Melbourne 2025, we sat down with Julie Canepa—long-time Cisco IT leader and former CIO for Australia & New Zealand who later led digital transformation and CX programs across Asia Pacific, Japan & China—to unpack how AI strategy becomes real business impact.

We cover moving from pilots to scale, building guardrails that accelerate delivery, linking AI to customer-experience KPIs, and reskilling teams for “everyday AI.”

What you’ll learn:

  • The scale playbook: ownership, controls, and value stories that land with the business.

  • People–Process–Technology: raising AI fluency and reskilling at speed.

  • Measuring what matters: tying AI to CX and board-level outcomes.

  • “Everyday AI”: practical agent patterns beyond the demo stage.

Guest: Julie Canepa (Cisco ANZ CIO; APJC digital transformation/CX leader).

Series: Special Cisco Executive Interviews — Part 2 (recorded around Cisco Live Melbourne 2025).
