Welcome to Camp Forward Networks—where connections thrive far beyond the wifi zones. As a network security company, Forward Networks knows that their industry can be a high-stress battlefield with little relief. So, for Cisco Live, they wanted to find a way to create a great escape for their audience while also making a splash on the busy show floor—and Camp Forward Networks was born. Whether to huddle around our faux fire pit or simply soak in the scenery, visitors flocked to our unique tech haven where they could kick back, relax, and learn about preventing network fires with Forward rangers. Five demo areas, a presentation space, and adventurous giveaways like a mountain bike, blow-up kayak, or YETI coolers, all helped kindle one-of-a-kind connections at this stand-out activation. Hailed as “…impossible to miss,” the booth generated such impressive results that, according to Forward’s team, it “worked almost too well!”
