SUMMARY:EuCNC & 6G Summit 2026
DESCRIPTION:The 2026 EuCNC & 6G Summit continues the tradition of merging two influential telecommunications conferences: EuCNC (European Conference on Networks and Communications)\, backed by the European Commission\, and the 6G Summit\, which 6G Flagship launched and has hosted in Oulu since 2019. Sponsored by IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc)\, EURASIP and EurAAP\, the conference covers all facets of telecommunications\, from 5G deployment and mobile IoT to 6G research\, testbeds and future communication systems. Drawing over 1\,000 delegates from more than 40 countries\, it brings together researchers\, industry and policymakers to share results and shape the direction of connectivity. \n6G Flagship and University of Oulu researchers are contributing across all four days — through workshops\, paper tracks\, poster sessions\, a panel and the demo floor — spanning resilient and sustainable 6G\, THz and spectrum research\, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces\, machine learning in live deployments and hands-on testbed work. \n\nMeet 6G Flagship at EuCNC & 6G Summit 2026\nA selection of 6G Flagship and University of Oulu contributions\, Málaga\, 2–5 June.
