Subgroup devices, sensors and IoT for 5G use cases

Track:Capacity Buildings / Working Groups
  • CEF Digital
  • 5G for Smart Communities
  • Connectivity
  • Funding for Digital
  • Healthcare

As a follow-up to recent discussions within the healthcare vertical, a dedicated sub-group on Devices, Sensors and IoT focused on 5G use cases has been established.

This working session will bring together CEF Digital projects across all sectors - not limited to healthcare - to exchange practical insights on the deployment and use of connected devices, sensors, and IoT components within their 5G infrastructures.

Objectives

The sub-group has two primary goals:

  • Mapping current deployment and needs: Collect structured input from participating projects regarding the devices and sensors currently in use, as well as outstanding technical, operational, or procurement needs. 

  • Supporting strategic engagement ahead of MWC Barcelona: By gathering this intelligence in advance of Mobile World Congress, participating projects will be better positioned to engage with relevant device manufacturers and ecosystem actors.

Format and Participation

This will be a focused working meeting; therefore, the session will be structured as an interactive discussion among participating projects. The objective is to ensure meaningful, solution-oriented exchanges.
