5G for Smart Communities Support Platform

5GSC Community Conference Friday, 18 October 2024 Albert Borschette Congress Center, Rue Froissart 36, 1040 Etterbeek, Brussels

The 5G for Smart Communities Support Platform, on behalf of the European Commission, is pleased to invite you to our annual Community Conference for the CEF Digital 5G for Smart Communities stakeholders. This gathering will take place as an engaging Cluster Meeting, designed to foster collaboration and innovation.

Join us as we delve into the world of 5G, exploring and identifying common building blocks essential for smart community projects. Our discussions will tackle the challenges and solutions in the realm of 5G, focusing on the implementation, replication, and key enablers across various application domains. This event offers a unique opportunity to gain insights into defining clear business models, understanding technical components, and discovering solutions for off-the-shelf replicable 5G projects.

By the end of the day, participants will be empowered with a deeper understanding of common requirements and practical approaches to building their own 5G projects. Don't miss this chance to connect with peers and share knowledge!

We look forward to welcoming you in Brussels.
