What is the Services Ecosystem (SeS)

The Services Ecosystem is sustained by an open-architecture, which has been built organically, in concert with global partners and providers. The key building blocks of the aQovia Service EcoSystem are based on industry leading cloud-services pioneers. The Services EcoSystem seeks to enrich lives of our customers through the application of information, communications and technology. aQovia continue to promote the integration of EcoSystems through our open-architecture platforms and integrated municipal fibre and wireless networks. A services on-ramp is an integral part of the Service EcoSystem, seeking perpetual growth and sustainability of innovation. The distillation of the intrinsic and tangible value is achieved by the creation and monetisation of services.

Please see the Services EcoSystem Network and Systems member section of our website for our current family of providers and partners. Please contact us if you wish to join us, or if you wish us to become part of your EcoSystem.

At Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) customers come first and an integral part of our DNA is creating long-lasting customer partnerships and working with them to identify their needs and provide solutions that support their success. The concept of solutions being driven to address specific customer challenges has been with Cisco since its inception. Husband and wife Len Bosack and Sandy Lerner, both working for Stanford University, wanted to email each other from their respective offices located in different buildings but were unable to due to technological shortcomings. A technology had to be invented to deal with disparate local area protocols; and as a result of solving their challenge - the multi-protocol router was born. Since then Cisco has shaped the future of the Internet by creating unprecedented value and opportunity for our customers, employees, investors and ecosystem partners and has become the worldwide leader in networking - transforming how people connect, communicate and collaborate.
