Receive complimentary access to a substantial number of tokens, empowering you to experiment with GenAI and bring your innovative ideas to life.
This challenge will foster innovation in direct-to-device communications, enabling mobile devices to connect directly to satellites without the need for ground infrastructure. The aim is to enhance global coverage, especially in remote and underserved regions, with a preference for standardised solutions rather than proprietary.
This challenge will focus on early-stage 6G technologies, emphasizing areas where satellite-terrestrial convergence will play a critical role in line with the latest recommendations of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). Use cases such as ultra-low latency applications, advanced IoT, and edge intelligence will be key targets for innovation.
This challenge aims to create hybrid hubs that integrate terrestrial and satellite infrastructures. These hubs will act as platforms for testing and demonstrating TN-NTN convergence.
GTI and GSMA Foundry launch groundbreaking challenges to revolutionise the Integration of 5G-A x AI industry and innovation.
This new international initiative aims to recognise innovative digital transformation projects that champion sustainability and align with the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
