Cisco’s Espen Løberg to Keynote InfoComm 2026 on Powering the Modern Workplace with Connected Intelligence

Cisco will take center stage at InfoComm 2026 as Espen Løberg, VP and GM of Collaboration Devices, delivers a keynote on the future of connected workplaces. The session will focus on how organizations can overcome fragmented AV and IT systems by adopting a unified approach, bringing together devices, networks, and AI-driven platforms to create smoother and more efficient collaboration experiences.

Løberg will highlight Cisco’s “Connected Intelligence” vision, emphasizing the role of AV-over-IP, workplace analytics, and AI in improving performance, scalability, and user experience. With partnerships spanning NVIDIA, Microsoft, Zoom, Apple, and Samsung, Cisco aims to showcase how integrated ecosystems can power smarter, future-ready work environments across hybrid and distributed teams.

At InfoComm 2026, the world’s most essential destination for AV, IT, broadcast, and AI-driven systems, Espen Løberg, Vice President and General Manager of Collaboration Devices at Cisco, will deliver a keynote address at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. InfoComm 2026 takes place June 13–19, with exhibits June 17–19.

As organizations reimagine how and where work happens, the systems that power collaboration – from AV and IT infrastructure to workplace analytics and AI-driven experiences – are often managed separately. The result can be complex deployments, inconsistent user experiences, and limited visibility into how workspaces actually perform.

During his keynote, Løberg will explore how organizations can unify these environments through Cisco’s vision of Connected Intelligence – an approach that brings together collaboration platforms, devices, networks, and AI-enabled infrastructure to deliver more seamless, scalable, and intelligent workplace experiences.

Attendees will hear how converged AV-over-IP networks and intelligent collaboration technologies can simplify management, deliver richer insights into workspace performance, and enable better collaboration outcomes across distributed teams. Løberg will also discuss how Cisco is partnering with technology leaders including NVIDIA, Microsoft, Zoom, Apple, and Samsung to advance the next generation of connected workplace solutions.

“By bringing together collaboration devices, services built-in with Agentic AI, and secure network infrastructure, organizations can deliver experiences where people, technology, and intelligent systems work seamlessly together,” said Løberg. “We’re excited to share how Cisco is helping customers build future-ready workplaces at InfoComm 2026.”

Løberg leads Cisco’s global Collaboration Devices business, overseeing the strategy, development, and delivery of the company’s portfolio of video conferencing systems, desk devices, and intelligent peripherals designed to support modern hybrid work. Since joining Cisco through the acquisition of Tandberg in 2010, he has played a key role in advancing Cisco’s collaboration technologies and AI-powered meeting experiences.

“InfoComm is where the pro AV and IT communities come together to explore how technology is transforming real-world environments,” said Jenn Heinold, Senior Vice President, Expositions, Americas, AVIXA, producer of InfoComm. “Cisco’s perspective on connected infrastructure and intelligent workplace solutions reflects the broader convergence happening across AV, IT, and AI—and will offer valuable insight for organizations designing the next generation of collaboration experiences.”

InfoComm 2026 brings together technologies and people reshaping how we work, play, learn, communicate, and experience the world. The show will feature an all new Work/Play show floor experience, with immersive activation hubs, expanded learning opportunities, and the latest innovations across conferencing and collaboration, enterprise IT, broadcast workflows, and live events – along with a growing focus on how AI is being applied across AV systems, collaboration, and production.
