Please join us on May 9 as we continue the Track 1.5 dialogue on Open RAN with the Second Quad Open RAN Forum. We will bring together government and industry leaders to discuss progress on Open RAN deployments over the past year and how Open RAN is facilitating innovation in telecoms infrastructure and beyond.
As part of their participation in the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue, the governments of Australia, India, Japan, and the U.S. (“Quad governments”) have emphasized the importance of secure and trusted infrastructure for 5G and advanced wireless networks, as well as the need for greater vendor diversity across the telecoms ecosystem.
Because Open RAN has a significant role in delivering on these priorities there has been substantial investment by the private sector, as well as government support for the development and adoption of open and interoperable interfaces.
