13th Mobile Connected World
Shaping the Cities of the Future!
5 October 2023
The “heart” of connectivity, fifth generation networks (5G), private networks, 5G Standalone (SA), smart cities, as well as the future under development in the form of 6G, will “beat” again this year at Mobile Connected World, a conference coming on October 5, 2023, for the 13th time, carrying the signature and credibility of Smart Press. In the ever-changing landscape of interconnectivity, the conference will highlight our path to a fully connected future!
The uncertainty of 5G
Focused on the present but looking to the future, the 13th Mobile Connected World will highlight the transformative power of 5G and take an in-depth look at the future and the revolutionary possibilities that 6G promises to bring. The conference will not only delve into the technical details but, with the contribution of experts and their speeches, it will present practical applications that transform every industry, change every economy and reshape every society.
The conference will focus on the developmental strides made by 5G and the opportunities that come forward through private and standalone networks, presenting unprecedented possibilities for data transmission, a process that paves the way for strengthening Internet of Things (IoT) and improving Machine-to-Machine communication. And since practical applications always been important in their own right, we will see how 5G brings development in areas such as health, construction, education and entertainment!
5G subscribers are multiplying in every region of the world. Specifically, it is predicted that they will reach 1.5 billion at the end of 2023 and 4.6 billion worldwide by the end of 2028, exceeding 50% of the total number. And if we take a look at private networks as well, studies show that business investment in private networks will approach $10 billion worldwide by 2028, showing a significant increase from the $1 billion reached in 2023. With a rise by 722%, the three sectors driving growth are Construction (35%), Energy (20%) and Public Services (16%). There are more than a few voices who say that private networks are the “key” to generating revenue through 5G!
Smart Cities: The future is here!
At the same time, the conference will also focus on the concept of a “Smart City”, which, as we accelerate ever more towards a more digital and interconnected world, is evolving from a desirable future to a critical necessity. The technology and data at our disposal show that improving the quality of urban living, enhancing sustainability and increasing efficiency is not just a luxury – it is an imperative.
After all, the Smart Cities project is in the implementation phase, which involves 16 municipalities with a population of over 100,000 inhabitants and the municipality of Trikala, as a model of a “smart municipality”, with a budget of 90 million euros and financing from the Recovery Fund. At the same time, in the context of a corresponding action, a budget of 230 million euros (from the European Regional Recovery Fund – ERDF) has been issued for 315 municipalities with a population of less than 100.000 inhabitants.
As we move deeper into the digital present and into an even more digital future, Mobile Connected World 2023 invites you to be a part of this journey. It is not just one more conference. It is a celebration of entrepreneurship, ingenuity, innovation and a shared commitment to shaping a future where technology will serve as a catalyst for progress, offering limitless possibilities.
