Webinar: A Rebel Alliance for 6G?
Recently two respected industry analysts have each separately published significant pieces of research suggesting alternative models of progress towards a next generation other than that laid out by the 3GPP process. This webinar aims to dig into their ideas, test them against each other and against public opinion, and put your questions to the authors.
Webinar: Getting 6G-Ready – The Next Generation of People and Skills
The skills needed for a successful career in telecoms are changing fast; on top of networking capabilities lies an understanding of IT, AI, cloud and cybersecurity in ways which are rapidly changing. How do we train, recruit and retain enough skilled people to secure a future for the industry?
Join people with unique views and initiatives to find out the opportunities and concerns.
Webinar: Network Resilience & the Prospect of 6G
It went largely under the radar during MWC, but in February ten governments aligned on a press release which called on telecoms providers to adhere to principles of “resilience, openness and security”. They underlined that not only would they be implementing policies to make this happen, but they would encourage other nations to do the same.
The industry is familiar with concepts of security and openness, but what does resilience mean? Such a broad term encapsulates a variety of concepts, especially in this context.
On 13th June 6GWorld brought together leading experts in policy, research and defence to explore:
What’s driving the emergence of resilience as a topic, and why now?
Core concepts in resilience for future systems.
How they overlap or conflict with aims for the next generation of telecoms.
What implications this has for the evolution of commercial telecoms models, policy and research.
What’s stopping a ‘network of networks’ working in practice?
Among the different concepts for future networks, there is one that pops up again and again: the ‘network of networks’. Can we create a system which delivers end users a seamless experience regardless of the access technology needed – whether cellular, Wi-Fi, satellite or others? If so, it could be a huge gain for end users’ quality of experience and also for the overall resilience of the systems we have in place now. However, we haven’t managed it up until now.
6G In 2024 – What to Look For & Why
2023 highlighted some of the disparities between stakeholders and their different concepts of what 6G can or should be – a source of societal and economic growth (governments); a set of revolutionary new capabilities and services.
