Mr. Sunil Manglore, CEO, Datacraft India, said, “We are very pleased to be among the first few companies to deploy the innovative TelePresence solution for the educational segment in India. The use of Cisco TelePresence solution can benefit both the university and its students alike. Using the virtual meeting technology, it is now easier for students to collaborate and interact directly with the lecturers and subject matter experts wherever they may be.

We believe the successful implementation of the TelePresence solution would have a positive impact on raising the bar of educational excellence for the university. “
