SBLI USA also upgraded its customer centers and offices in New York, NY, Buffalo, NY, Newark, NJ, Chicago, IL, Glendale, Calif., and Bayamon, Puerto Rico with digital signage, Unified Communications and Web-based applications. With this new infrastructure in place, SBLI USA is well positioned to build the type of long-term relationships that consumers need, while maintaining its feel as a community-oriented financial services organization.

The Cisco Growing with Technology Awards program was created to recognize small and midsize organizations from across the United States and Canada that use networking technology in innovative ways to improve sales and marketing, expand and deliver superior service to customers, improve operational efficiencies, or outpace their competition. The winners of the program represent their industries and constituencies as role models, showcasing best practices on the use of technology to address business challenges, compete more effectively and fuel success. A panel of 10 judges selected 15 winners in five categories from more than 570 applications.

Paul Capizzi, vice president of technology infrastructure at SBLI USA (www.sbliusa.com), expresses his appreciation for the opportunities Cisco has created for the company: "Using our Cisco technology infrastructure has accelerated our national brand expansion and growing potential. We believe that 'growing with technology' is the key driver in reaching our customers on a daily basis. On behalf of our Information Technology department at SBLIUSA we are extremely excited and honored to accept this award and acknowledgment."

"The Cisco Growing with Technology Awards program celebrates the entrepreneurial approach that leading small and midsized organizations are taking toward the adoption of technology. This year's winners exemplify the Cisco Smart Business approach to technology adoption," said Peter Alexander, vice president of Business Marketing at Cisco. "Being a 'smart business' means using technology to improve internal business processes: working smarter instead of harder. As one of this year's winners, SBLI USA is ahead of its peers in terms of being a 'smart business.' We hope other organizations will be inspired by SBLI USA's creative and resourceful approach to harnessing the Internet and networking technology to set itself apart from its peers."
