6G Summit

Discover the future of mobile networks at the 6G Summit, where industry stakeholders gather to envision the next generation of connectivity.

Industry stakeholders are already talking about the next generation mobile networks, known as 6G, and what this might look like. Many research and white papers have already been published by reputable organisations—from vendors and CSPs to standards bodies and universities—that discuss the potential 6G technologies represent. Partnering with ATIS and Next G Alliance provides access to valuable insights in the USA and data on global telecommunications.

Key Topics:

Defining the Need and Timelines for Implementing a 6G Infrastructure

Potential Spectrum Bands for 6G Deployment

Foundational Application Areas Enabled by 6G

The Role of 6G as a Backbone for Emerging Technologies

Redefining Sustainability KPIs for 6G Design

Session Highlights

Defining the Need and Timelines for Implementing a 6G Infrastructure

  • Realistic timelines for the rollout of commercial 6G investments, particularly considering the current economic market 

  • What GenAI bring to the table for network management and operations?  

  • Will 6G transform the dynamics of communication among consumers, networks, and devices? 

Potential Spectrum Bands for 6G Deployment

  • Potential 6G suitable spectrum bands based on applications and technology requirements, including required bandwidth/amount of spectrum. 

  • Covering drivers for 6G spectrum needs and characteristics including target key performance indicators from a spectrum perspective for enabling technologies and applications performance requirements. 

Foundational Application Areas Enabled by 6G

  • A discussion around the foundational application areas that will be enabled by 6G. 

  • Leveraging the most significant developments in mobile technology. 

The Role of 6G as a Backbone for Emerging Technologies

  • Potential 6G suitable spectrum bands based on applications and technology requirements, including required bandwidth/amount of spectrum. 

  • Covering drivers for 6G spectrum needs and characteristics including target key performance indicators from a spectrum perspective for enabling technologies and applications performance requirements. 

Redefining Sustainability KPIs for 6G Design

  • By redefining our approach to Sustainability Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to provide enhances observability that will foster a circular economy but also empower users and carriers with sustainable choices, we will explore the innovative frameworks and challenges that shape the sustainable design of 6G.
