About the meeting

Exploring the future of wireless networks

Private wireless networks are becoming increasingly popular, connecting fixed and mobile devices across larger areas with improved reliability and security. Many organisations are already deploying or testing private networks based on 5G technology.

WWRF Meeting 55 will examine whether the enhanced capabilities of 6G can offer further advantages in security, latency and performance, particularly for real-time applications that operate primarily within local environments.

The meeting invites researchers, industry experts, visionaries and policy specialists from around the world to explore the challenges involved in creating a hyperconnected, secure, intelligent and sustainable digital future. Across three days of keynote sessions, panel discussions and interactive breakout sessions, WWRF55 will encourage cross-disciplinary dialogue, challenge assumptions and generate new research ideas.
