Cambridge Wireless Mobile Broadband SIG Event in association with Intellect

‘4G and Beyond: The Mobile Landscape in the UK after the LTE Auction’
The auction for 800MHz and 2.6GHz spectrum concluded in early 2013, putting an end to a period of uncertainty in the UK mobile sector. The introduction of 4G, and what this means from both a business perspective and a technical perspective, shall be looked at during this half day Mobile Broadband SIG event. Observations from a business perspective will be based principally on the experience of 4G in the UK with EE and from international markets, with the technical perspective focusing on future technology upgrades for LTE and what they might mean. The session will also look to the latter end of the decade and consider the next major release of spectrum, 700MHz. Speakers include Phil Sheppard of 3UK (TBC), Omar Al Janabi of Nokia Siemens Networks UK Limited, Ronan de Renesse of Analysys Mason and Erika Forsberg of Ofcom.

Start date/time :  12:00 8th May 2013
End date/time :  16:35 8th May 2013
Venue :  Intellect, Russell Square House, 10-12 Russell Square, London, WC1B 5EE
