Members of the WM5G team will be speaking at the 5G Realised Summit on Wednesday 9th and Thursday 10th September 2020.

The 5G Realised Summit will look at use cases for 5G across different industry vertical segments. The virtual event will utilise live streaming to allow the largest interested audience possible to access the content. The ‘on stage’ experience will be in line with expectations for the UK’s leading 5G use-case based event, with the exception of more speakers coming in via the interactive virtual event platform. For the exclusive small group onsite, social distancing will be observed and scheduling in small groups without the need for queues and any other form of involuntary close contact.

Andy Street will be speaking as part of a session on the role of 5G in the UK, showcasing the West Midlands as the UK’s first 5G multi-city.

Robert Franks will take part in a ‘fireside chat’ about 5G policy in the UK, covering topics including urban connected communities, shared rural networks and harnessing government procurement procedures to accelerate 5G applications.

Taking part in a panel discussion on manufacturing and 5G, Mark Stansfeld will offer a West Midlands perspective on topics such as manufacturing automation, large-scale IoT for real-time predictive maintenance and remote quality inspection.
