Winning the Global Race to 5G: Why it all Comes Down to Policy and the Pace of
Infrastructure Deployment

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has publicly stated that its
primary mission over the next few years is to ensure that the United States wins
the race to full 5G deployment, while allowing private industry to ultimately
determine how it will be done. This presents a unique challenge for the U.S.
telecommunications industry – how can it get investment capital, government
policy, and commercial markets moving at the same speed to outpace international
infrastructure developments? How can industry leverage government support in a
way that puts the nation at an advantage in the race to 5G?

5G Smart Structures: Transforming Unique Physical Buildings into Compatible
Smart City Network Nodes

Smart cities are, in essence, a network of smart structures – buildings, parks,
train stations, etc. In order to connect each of those structures to a
compatible 5G network, they must be fitted with unique wireless solutions that
are designed for a variety of unique physical characteristics. Your Smart City
education begins here – with an in-depth panel discussion on how smart buildings
are built. Learn how each structure’s materials, shape, location, and public
access routes factor into the network design. The session will address costs,
building codes, path loss, as well as how building networks will be owned and
operated.

Bridging the Digital Divide: Are there 5G Deployment Plans for Rural Communities
and Mobile, Remote Industries?

The impact of 5G will not be limited to dense, urban markets. The rollout will
also play an important role in bridging the digital divide to rural communities
and businesses operating in remote regions that depend on wireless connectivity.
What exactly does the 5G era look like for these end-users? Are there actual 5G
deployments planned? Or, will 5G free up more 4G and 3G resources to dedicate to
remote customers? Could it be both? In addition to these topics, the panel will
also address the significant economic opportunities that rural wireless
infrastructure can deliver for small communities and agriculture.

How Local Government and Private Industry Should Invest in 5G: Perspectives and
Guidance from the Financial Community

Planning a 5G infrastructure investment is no easy task and, as we have learned
in previous sessions, there is no one-size-fits-all strategy or approach. A good
place to start is by prioritizing your needs. What does your city, business, or
facility need out of 5G wireless – data collection and predictive analytics,
robust IoT, responsive AI? What is the most economically feasible path to
achieving those needs? This session takes a slightly different approach to
answering these questions by enlisting the help of the financial community. This
panel of analysts, bankers, and investors will provide their insights and
perspectives on large-scale 5G investments, while sharing advice and guidance to
those leading smaller-scale projects. Topics will include: How can 5G wireless
service providers and hardware manufacturers regain the trust of end-users and
customers who feel that they were left behind in the transition to 4G LTE? Can
5G projects be financed in a way that benefits everyone involved?

What is the Ideal Collaborative Industry/Government Strategy to Address 5G
Security and Privacy Concerns?

As 5G allows a vast number of networks to speak to each other, it places an even
greater focus on the need for a united industry and government front to protect
networks from malicious attacks. What is the role and responsibility of
government and industry in protecting networks and the privacy of individual
data? Which organizations and agencies need to take leadership? How can
government clear up confusion over conflicting network security directives? With
5G networks moving at light speed and powering millions of networks and
applications simultaneously, how can network security strategies remain adaptive
and proactive? Is network security now a matter of public safety? Should
government be responsible for providing network security as a public service?
