Luminary speakers include Ryan Reynolds, who will deliver the closing keynote on creative leadership and innovation, and Nvidia Corp.'s (NASDAQ:NVDA) Deepu Talla, vice president of Robotics and Edge AI, who will present a forward-looking vision on robotics and edge AI.

Cisco leaders Jeetu Patel, Anurag Dhingra, and Aruna Ravichandran will also take the stage to share the company's AI vision, unveil new technologies, and discuss how these integrate across Cisco's portfolio to transform the future of work and customer engagement.

Cisco also opened Cisco Quantum Labs in Santa Monica, where scientists are advancing the entanglement chip and developing tools such as entanglement-distribution protocols, a distributed quantum compiler, and a Quantum Random Number Generator. The company implemented Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) NIST standards across its portfolio to secure classical networks against future quantum threats.
