Webinar: What Lessons Can 6G Learn From 5G?
Presenter: Mika Takahashi, Senior Technology Analyst, IDTechEx
Date: Thursday 27th October 2025
As the telecoms industry prepares itself for the rollout of 6G around 2030, there remains a sense of disappointment about the rollout of its predecessor, 5G. The costly rollout and deployment has struggled to bring real revenue gains for operators, and many customers feel disenfranchised with actual services compared with the advertised features of 5G.
This IDTechEx webinar draws on research from the market report "6G Market 2026-2036: Technology, Trends, Forecasts, Players". IDTechEx Senior Technology Analyst Mika Takahashi will discuss what the industry should learn from the 5G rollout, to ensure 6G is a success from day one, including:
- Current status of wireless networks, including traffic growth.
- Industry positioning as of 2025
- Key technical targets for 6G including semiconductor technology choice
- Open RAN and Non-terrestrial networks (NTNs)
- Summary of key trends and findings from IDTechEx's ongoing research into 6G.
Choose your preferred time zone - the webinar runs three times during the day.
