Huawei will join the board of the 5G Infrastructure Association in Europe, which represents the private interests participating in the EU’s 5G Public and Private Partnership (5G-PPP).
The 5G Public-Private Partnership (5G PPP) was formed earlier this year with a mission to secure Europe’s leadership in the particular areas where it is strong in networking technologies. The initiative will also explore new areas, such as smart cities, e-health, intelligent transport, education or entertainment & media.
Huawei said it will place significant effort in driving 5G foundational technology research, tests and large scale trials in collaboration with partners to assess the technical feasibility and business viability of new 5G technologies.
