Communications Beyond 5G and into the 6G Era
We are delighted to invite you to the Seventh Annual Brooklyn Summit, which will now be called the “Brooklyn 6G Summit (B6GS),” to be held virtually on October 18-19, 2021. The annual Brooklyn Summit is one of the most distinguished gatherings, that has chartered the technical future of the wireless industry since its inaugural event in 2014. The summit has been a harbinger of future developments in communication technologies, applications and services for consumers, enterprises and industry. The B6GS is hosted by Nokia and the NYU WIRELESS research center at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering, and features an amazing line-up of visionaries and global leaders.
In addition to our 2021 B6GS transitioning to a virtual format for this year, this landmark event will sharpen its focus on the rollout and implementation of 5G evolution, and will delve into the emergence of 6G technologies. These themes are in keeping with the summit’s goal of initiating the conversation and technical exchanges that will pave the way for the future of global wireless networks. As we do each year, the B6GS will bring together leading corporate executives, technology visionaries, academics and engineers working in 5G-evolution and 6G-related fields.
The theme of our Inaugural Brooklyn 6G Summit is “Communications Beyond 5G and into the 6G Era,” as we shall examine the status of 5G-evolution and the 6G initiatives across the globe. The event will highlight the latest innovations in all 5G domains as well as key technologies and the creative minds behind them that will define the 6G era, and will include visionary keynotes and the annual Pioneer Award.
In addition to presentations from leading technical experts and lively panel discussions, there will be virtual exhibits featuring demonstrations of the most cutting-edge 5G and 6G technologies, products, and prototypes. With 5G rolling out across the globe, the future and scope of 6G is still being debated and shaped. You don't want to miss this one-of-a-kind event, nor the opportunity to experience the vision for 5G-evolution and 6G in the decade ahead.
We look forward to welcoming you to this unique event!
Please register NOW to confirm your participation at this pioneering 6G event.
Registration will close on October 15th, 2021.
We also invite you to submit your proposals if you wish your organization to be included in the B6GS demonstrations. Since this year's summit is virtual, you will need to think creatively to really engage the audience! There is a limited time allocated on each day of the B6GS for demos; therefore, we will be selecting the best demonstrations for presentation at the event. There is a cut-off date of August 27 for proposals, and a deadline of October 4 for submission of your completed video demonstration for the B6GS. CLICK HERE for more information and to submit your demonstration proposal.
Please ensure you submit your proposal by August 31, 2021.
