14:30-16:00 | mmWave: Europe’s 5G game changer – sharing early success stories
With 5G deployments very well underway in mid- and low-band spectrum, 5G mmWave is coming increasingly into the spotlight in Europe with its benefits of larger bandwidth, higher capacity, both in downlink and uplink. In a number of European countries trials and commercial deployments have started and use cases are being explored. The session will focus on sharing success stories in 5G mmWave deployments in a number of EU member states and will explore policy actions that could accelerate the deployment of 5G mmWave to enable Europe to make the most of full 5G capabilities.
