VQ’s Monthly News
June 2025

This month’s newsletter recaps some of our highlights and points you to our newly refreshed website, where you can dive deeper into the world of secure, self-hosted conferencing.

What a week at Cisco Live! The VQ Team spent the week connecting with partners, customers and Cisco to showcase how VQ Conference Manager delivers secure, video conferencing solutions.

If you missed it, don’t worry – Giles Adams, VQ CEO, joined Cisco’s live broadcast to discuss:

  • Why on-premise conferencing is thriving
  • How VQ supports defence, government and highly secure deployments
  • What’s next for the Cisco + VQ partnership

Watch the full interview below!

From seamless Cisco Meeting Server integration to transcription and translation, VQ Conference Manager enables organisations to deliver the same polished experience users expect from the cloud – with total control.

“Earlier this month, the VQ Team took some well-earned time away from screens and servers with a coastal company day in the UK. It was a chance to reconnect and celebrate what we’re building at VQ.

“We’re incredibly proud of the momentum behind VQ right now – from the feedback we had at Cisco Live to the energy at our team day, it’s clear we’re building something that matters.

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our customers, partners and community. 

Your support continues to shape the future of secure, self-hosted video conferencing.”  — Giles Adams, Chief Executive Officer at VQ
