CRN Network, November 22, 2006

John T. Chambers, chairman and CEO of Cisco Inc., is planning to visit India on December 6th and 7th, 2006. During this two-day visit he will be meeting with ministers, senior government officials, leaders of Indian industry, key Indian customers and partners.

Chambers will be spending a day each in Delhi and Bangalore respectively. Other engagements on Chambers' schedule include a keynote on "Network as an Enabler for Life's Experiences" to senior Indian executives at a CEO's address organized in association with the Confederation of Indian Industries (CII).

Commenting on his India visit, David Caspari, interim president, Cisco India said, "India has become a key part of Cisco's operations worldwide and is one of the fastest growing markets in the Asia Pacific Region. The fact that John has chosen to visit the country for the third time demonstrates the importance of India to Cisco and provides an opportunity to focus on the next phase of Cisco's growth plans in India."

During his last visit in Oct 2005, Cisco had announced a three-year, $1.16 billion investment plan in India.
