About
The leading 5G infrastructure event in North
America, convening executives from commercial
carriers, fixed and mobile network operators,
enterprises and their infrastructure partners to
invest, design, deploy and operate next generation
public and private 5G networks.
Participate:
The future is 5G, and it’s already happening now.
WIA’s Annual Convention, Connect (X), provides
the ideal meeting place for carriers and wireless
stakeholders to come together under one roof for
networking, education, and business opportunities.
Position yourself as an industry leader in the most
exciting race to 5G.
Infrastructure requirements are
going to be massive. I would argue
that we are going to need 10 times
the infrastructure versus where we
are in 4G.
Marc Ganzi, CEO-elect, Colony Capital, Inc.
