Wireless Global Congress EMEA 2025
Wi-Fi Innovation: Connecting Our Digital World
WGC EMEA is the home of the largest Wi-Fi Technology event, and this year we highlight new standards, capabilities, innovations and ways for operators, enterprise organizations and cities to transform and manage their wireless business operations.
The Wireless Broadband Alliance (WBA) is delighted to be co-locating with Network X for the third year running to bring the Wireless Global Congress EMEA, the home of the largest Wi-Fi technology event to Paris. This year we are looking at how Wi-Fi Innovation is connecting our digital world – from cities to schools; from the office to remote working; stadiums to our high street stores and for all our connectivity needs at home – Wi-Fi is the fabric that connects us.
This October we will be looking at the latest trends from Wi-Fi 7 and Wi-Fi 8 to AI and Machine learning – key regulatory and spectrum considerations – OpenRoaming addressing connectivity, security, privacy as well as the WBA's vision on optimising 6G convergence opportunities and customer experience for the next decade …and much more… and of course looking at all the business opportunities and management considerations that are critical to operators.
