ETSI is pleased to participate to the Conference moderated by Jean-Pierre Bienaimé, Honorary Chairman, IREST, Philippe Picard, president of AHTI, Marc-Antoine Dupuis (Genasys), Dominique Balbi (IREST), and Rémi Thomas (Orange).
Luis Jorge Romero, ETSI Director-General, will be part of the panel.
The first GSM call, 30 years ago, was a European achievement which became a worldwide success: now, all digital mobile networks apply the basic concepts designed for GSM.
The purpose of this round table is to identify the key success factors of this cooperation and to take benefit from them to build new European successes in the field of digital systems, which increasingly impact global economy and society.
Main topics:
- How to manage efficient cooperation between R&D and market anticipation
- Importance for competing manufacturers to benefit from a “common house”: Standardization
- How Europe can continue to play an important role in the next global standards, in regard with other regions of the world?
- What is expected from the European Commission?
- Telcos’ standpoint: vision for the next steps (5G Evolution, 6G), will they afford R&D funding?
