Yesterday at the Cisco Asia Pacific, Japan and Greater China Partner-Led Network Conference that took place in Bangkok, we took the opportunity to announce the recipients of the Cisco Smart Service awards. The purpose of these awards is to recognise our partners and customers from the region who showed forward-thinking approaches in the delivery and integration of Cisco Smart Services. The winners were chosen for their innovation and expertise that enable "Smart Everywhere" for their end-users across the region.

The awards are divided up into three categories; partner awards -for partners who used Smart Services to accelerate growth of their services business; vendor awards -for vendors who have demonstrated innovation and operational excellence for Cisco Services; and customer awards -for those customers that have used Smart Services to fuel their business performance, efficiency and productivity.

The winners in each market and category were as follows:
