#5GMadeTogether: Open RAN deployments - lessons learned

Two years ago we started the discussion about the future of telecommunications for Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). We got together with stakeholders from organizations active in the mobile telecommunications market – mobile operators, regulators, R&D centers, governments, and business association representatives. Last year we moved forward and deployed the first 5G Open RAN laboratory in the region in partnership with Riga Technical University. This year’s focus is on real-life use cases, showcasing the deployments of private 5G networks that took place over the past year.

Areas of discussion:

  • Real-life applications and installations
  • Evolution and current status of 5G
  • Lessons learned and practical guidance

Quantum Fusion: Seamlessly Integrating QKD Optical Networks into Wireless Communication Networks - 5G, Wi-Fi & IoT

Wireless communication networks security and user privacy is becoming increasingly vital, especially with the development of quantum computers. The integration of quantum technologies into wireless networks will improve the security of data transmission, thereby improving service continuity and secure public access.

During the demonstration event, VASES will share the results achieved so-far on implementing LATQN project. VASES will present research outcomes on various data transmission scenarios between radio equipment of different technologies, such as:

  • 5G;
  • Wi-Fi;
  • Radio equipment equipped with quantum technology functionality.

From Smart Cities to Metacities

We are observing the emergence of the next generation of Smart Cities – so called METACITIES – mainly across Europe. There are several regional projects in Europe which are helping to explore new technologies and create the path towards the next generation of Smart Cities.

We are very excited to see all these Metacities ecosystem activities and we are hosting this special event during the 5G Techritory where we will invite their representatives:

  • Understand the objectives, initiatives and activities of each project
  • Exchange ideas for collaboration and interconnection
  • Brainstorm for the possibility of a more connected way forward

Shifting the Balance: Advancing Diversity in Telecoms R&D

Gender equality has improved under Horizon 2020, with the share of women in evaluation panels reaching 42%, above the 40% target. However, the share of women in scientific advisory panels and as researchers in projects remains below the 50% target, at 43% and 23% respectively.

By incorporating gender considerations into sustainability strategies, 6G networks can be designed to not only reduce environmental impact but also address social issues such as digital inclusion, equitable access to technology, and the creation of sustainable digital economies that benefit all.

The agenda of this co-creation event will include:

  • Introductions from WiTaR and Riga Techgirls;
  • Bar Camp highlight – Industry and academia’s view and practice to encourage gender diversity
    • Digital Skills & Upskilling
    • 6G Sustainability and Ecosystem Diversity
    • Diversity in Cybersecurity
    • Impact of diversity on 6G use cases
  • Results of diversity survey
