FOR-FREIGHT at the EuCNC & 6G Summit

The 2023 EuCNC & 6G Summit builds on putting together two successful conferences in the area of telecommunications: EuCNC (European Conference on Networks and Communications), supported by the European Commission, and the 6G Summit, originated from the 6G Flagship programme in Finland, one of the very first in its area. The conference was sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc), the European Association for Signal Processing (EURASIP) and the European Association on Antennas and Propagation (EurAAP), and focuses on all aspects of telecommunications ranging from 5G deployment and mobile IoT to 6G exploration and future communications systems and networks, including experimentation and testbeds, and applications and services. It brought together cutting-edge research and world-renown industries and businesses, globally attracting in the last years more than 1300 delegates from more than 40 countries all over the world, to present and discuss the latest results, and an exhibition with more than 70 exhibitors, for demonstrating the technology developed in the area, namely within research projects from EU R&I programmes.

The EuCNC & 6G Summit took place between the 6th and 9th of June this year, in Gothenburg, Sweden, and FOR-FREIGHT attended with the Special Session “Enabling innovation in Transport and Logistics operations: a 5G approach”.
