A Legacy of Impact

Since launching the original 6G Symposium series under 6GWorld, we’ve hosted over 300 speakers including leaders from Nokia Bell Labs, the FCC, White House OSTP, Lockheed Martin, Intelsat, and the DoD. With each edition, the conversation matured—from early vision to real deployments.

IWSS'25 is the evolution of that journey, bringing together the next layer of innovation in a tightly focused, high-signal virtual format.
