Scaling intelligent, efficient and open networks
Free Virtual Event | September 23rd, 9 AM EST / 2 PM UK
Brought to you by
Open RAN has moved beyond hype into real-world deployments, with Tier 1 operators scaling their networks and others following the path paved by early adopters. While the promise of full disaggregation and cost reduction is still being tested, momentum is building.
This forum explores where Open RAN stands today—its technical and operational maturity, the role of AI and automation, performance at scale, and the path toward 6G integration. From monetization opportunities to energy efficiency and standardization, we’ll examine how the ecosystem is addressing today’s challenges and shaping the next phase of intelligent, open network evolution.
