The 6G-RIC strives for a close exchange with industry to better understand 6G trends in industry and standardization. To this end, a 6G-RIC Advisory Board has been established with more than 50 leading companies from the telecommunications and vertical industries.
The close exchange takes place within the framework of interactive 6G-RIC Advisory Board Meetings and 6G-RIC Industry Workshops. After the successful first 6G-RIC Advisory Board Meeting in October 2022, where mainly the 6G-RIC visions and research work were presented, the first 6G-RIC Industrial Workshop took place on March 3 in Hildesheim at Bosch, where our industry partners presented their 6G visions and roadmaps.
The focus was on topics such as sub-terahertz communication, intelligent reconfigurable surfaces, integrated communication and sensing, and standardization. The presentations and most importantly the numerous discussions with the approximately 50 participants helped to foster a common understanding of the important 6G research topics and challenges.
Many thanks to our speakers: Dr. Frank Hofmann (Bosch), Prof. Slawomir Stanczak (HHI) Dr. Zoran Utkovski (HHI), Dr. Michael Meyer (Ericsson), Dr. Taro Eichler (Rohde&Schwarz), Amr Haj-Omar (National Instruments), Dr. Frank Schaich (NOKIA), Alan Carlton (Apple), Dr. Christos Oikonomopoulos (IMST) and Dr. Heiko Lehmann (Deutsche Telekom).
We look forward to continuing our collaboration in the 6G-RIC and achieving our common project goals.
