このコンテンツについて
John Chambers led Cisco through the rise of the internet—transforming it into the world’s most valuable company at its peak.
On this week’s Grit, the former Cisco CEO unpacks how he scaled the business from $70M to $50B+, pioneered M&A as a growth strategy with 180 acquisitions, and built what many called the best sales force in tech.
Now leading his own venture firm, Chambers shares how he’s backing the next generation of AI-native startups.
Guest: John T. Chambers, Former Cisco Executive Chairman & CEO, JC2 Ventures Founder & CEO
