Based on the paper Sustainability KPI Assessment – Introduction and Gap Analysis developed by the NGA Green G Working Group.

Evolving mobile communication networks and ICT technologies are transforming the way societies work, play and live. 6G will only accelerate this transformation. Attend the webinar to learn what environmental, economic and societal sustainability will look like in 6G and beyond.
