EuCNC & 6G Summit

Nokia will participate in the 2026 EuCNC & 6G Summit, taking place 2–5 June in Málaga, Spain, as a Gold Patron sponsor—underscoring its commitment to shaping the future of wireless communications.

Held under the theme “6G, Connecting Intelligence”, the summit is a leading annual forum for research, innovation and collaboration across next-generation connectivity.

The event brings together the European Conference on Networks and Communications (EuCNC) and the 6G Summit, combining strong academic, industry and policy participation. With more than 1,000 delegates from over 40 countries, the conference provides a high-level platform to explore topics spanning 6G research, future network architectures, experimentation, testbeds and new applications. The program includes keynotes, panels, workshops, tutorials, special and convened sessions, poster sessions and regular paper presentations.

At the event, Nokia will showcase its technology leadership and active role in the 6G ecosystem through demonstrations and contributions across the conference program.

• A commercial booth featuring three on-site demonstrations, including:
  • Teleoperated driving and immersive telepresence over low-latency 6G
  • Immersive remote expert as a profitable 6G use case
  • L4S visual demo: early congestion signals and proactive bottleneck detection
• SUSTAIN-6G lighthouse project booth, featuring six on-site demonstrations highlighting advanced 6G use cases and innovations developed within the European research ecosystem
• Contributions across the conference program, including:
  • 2 plenary panels, including the session chaired by Ömer Bulakci on “Architectural Transformation towards 6G: Standardization Landscape, Enablers and Challenges”
  • 10 workshops
  • 4 convened sessions
  • 7 special sessions

Nokia’s presence reflects its role in advancing wireless innovation from today’s 5G evolution to the AI-native, secure and sustainable networks that will define the 6G era.

Hosted in Málaga, a fast-growing European technology hub with strong research, software and innovation institutions, the 2026 edition highlights the momentum behind Europe’s 6G agenda. The summit takes place against the backdrop of major progress in the Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU), which is accelerating 6G research and large-scale innovation across Europe. Key themes this year include AI-native networks, sustainability, security by design, and the importance of global collaboration and standardization in shaping the next generation of connectivity.

As a not-for-profit conference, EuCNC & 6G Summit combines broad participation with a highly selective technical programme, helping foster impactful collaboration across research, industry and the wider innovation ecosystem.
