Cisco’s collaboration business is evolving, with new leadership poised to take over and a new emphasis on artificial intelligence.
The company recently announced that its Spark team messaging app will be rebranded and rolled into its Webex platform. And this week, it said Rowan Trollope – who has led Cisco’s collaboration efforts since 2012 – is leaving and will be replaced by Amy Chang, founder and CEO of Accompany, the AI business intelligence startup acquired for $270 million on Tuesday.
Chang, a former Google employee, will resign from Cisco’s board to become senior vice president in charge of the Collaboration Technology Group.
