The Next G Alliance tapped AT&T, Ericsson, Nokia and VMware executives to lead its efforts to develop 6G technology, and detailed its first working groups as it began work on its roadmap.
AT&T EVP and CTO Andre Fuetsch was appointed chair of the group’s governing body with Jan Soderstrom, head technology office Silicon Valley at Ericsson, named vice chair, both for two-year terms.
The alliance named executives from Nokia North America, AT&T and VMware as co-chairs of its steering group, with responsibility for R&D goals, work on standards and other policies to deliver commercial propositions.
Alongside the appointments, the alliance created two working groups: a 6G Roadmap initiative responsible for specifying research needs, technology developments and potential policies; and a team focused on reducing environmental impacts from emerging technologies.
Susan Miller, president and CEO of the group’s founder [1] the Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions (ATIS), said establishing leadership and working groups left the Next G Alliance “well positioned to create a national vision for the next decade”.
Other recent developments in 6G research include a move by China’s government [2] this week, and a commitment by European [3] operators last month.
