On 18th October, the SNS-ICE project will host a one-day co-creation event titled ‘National Initiatives : Discussion on different approaches to European collaboration for 6G research’. In this event we explore the opportunities for cooperation and collaboration between national initiatives working on 6G in Europe. The workshop welcomes members from industry, academia, government in order to promote discussions to explore the different ways in which collaboration can support the development of 6G in Europe. The workshop will feature presentations from different national and European R&I initiatives on collaboration opportunities, as well as discussions in small groups to further detail and agree on collaboration actions.

The event aims to stimulate discussions and gather ideas on the main ways in which collaboration can be established between the different European initiatives and how impediments for collaboration can be overcome.

Event room “Lambda”

This unique occasion is designed to bring together leading industry stakeholders to explore the future of advanced microchip technologies and innovations in Latvia.

The Partnership Pioneers Round-Table is an opportunity to delve into the technological advancements and potential of Latvia in the global microchip landscape. Riga Technical University (RTU) and Institute of Solid State Physics (CFI) currently boast “labs” with limited scalability. However, our internationally renowned professors and scientists have achieved remarkable feats in various technological domains.

During 5G Techritory 2023, our partners from IS-Wireless and Riga Technical University will organize a co-creation event on Open RAN deployment in Central-Eastern Europe. We will reflect on the progress of Open RAN in the region, share takeaways from the first installations, and plan the next steps with the decision-makers.

The exciting part will be the official inauguration of the first in the region 5G Open RAN laboratory and also the signing of an MoU between various stakeholders which will lead the way forward.

Event room “Gamma”

During 5G Techritory, the Nordic Council of Ministers will host a meeting for the Nordic-Baltic 5G Experts Group.

In this co-creation event we will:

• Promote that 5G Expert Group members have a more accurate overview of the whole network involved in the Nordic-Baltic 5G Monitoring Tool project, and they can be engaged as “5G Data HUB Ambassadors” for the dissemination of the 5G Data Hub;
• use the 5G expert group to provide a “sensitivity analysis” in the last stretch of the project concerning main deliveries and results;
• Discuss what would be relevant in the future: regarding sustainability of the 5G Data Hub after the end of the project and potential upgrades.

On-site event, invitation only.

Event room “Epsilon”

Supply chain attacks have increased exponentially over the past years. In this session, experts from PwC (Silke Holtmans) and Red Hat (François Duthilleul) will present some of these new initiatives and how they will contribute to mitigate the threat vectors of 5G core and RAN networks. They will also depict how 5G network functions can already be secured today on cloud based platforms and areas that require further attention. Audience will be requested to give their opinion by live voting between several proposals of targeted questions to fuel the discussion and make this session fun and interactive.
