Communications Infrastructure Summit 2019 | Capacity Media | 26 June 2019 | Marriott Marquis, 265 Peachtree Center Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30303, USA

In preparation for the highly anticipated deployment of commercial 5G around the world, companies across a vast selection of telecommunications sectors are strategising and prepping for network upgrades on an unprecedented scale. While commercial opportunities post deployment are looking very exciting and almost endless, to an industry challenged by fierce competition, the practical aspect of delivering an all encompassing network is complicated and expensive. To fully realise the opportunities in 5G cross-industry collaboration is crucial.

The unique gathering of fibre, wireless, software, hardware and data centre companies will also provide first hand insight on cross-industry collaboration and convergence. If your business strategic objective is to lead in technology development and network performance, don’t miss the opportunity to join the call to action.
