During our time at Cisco Live Melbourne 2025, we sat down with Mary de Wysocki, Cisco’s first-ever Chief Sustainability Officer, to unpack how circular design, energy-efficient data centres, and value-chain transparency can power AI responsibly—without blowing the carbon budget.

Under Mary’s leadership, Cisco has now incorporated Circular Design Principles into 100% of new products and packaging (FY25 goal achieved)—a key milestone that turns sustainability into an innovation driver for the AI era.

🎧 In this episode:
• What “AI-ready” infrastructure means in practice (efficiency + resilience)
• Bringing engineers into the sustainability process so efficiency becomes innovation
• Circularity at scale across Cisco’s portfolio and supply chain
• Why these moves matter as AI demand surges post-Cisco Live Melbourne 2025
