This workshop was organised by Hexa-X, the European 6G Flagship project, together with other 6G projects belonging to the 5G PPP – Smart Connectivity beyond 5G (ICT-52), which had the common challenge to go beyond the 5G capabilities developed under 3G PPPP release 16 while also advancing on the development of Smart Connectivity systems as a platform for a Next-Generation Internet to support highly flexible connectivity infrastructure.

The 2-day workshop covered a wide range variety of topics demonstrating the ambition, progress and capabilities of various projects such as TeraFlow, REINDEER, RISE-6G, 6G-BRAINS, DAEMON, B5G-OPEN, MARSAL, COREnect, and AI@EDGE.

Within the event, TeraFlow hrld the presentation "TeraFlow use cases for a novel cloud-native SDN controller for beyond 5G networks" at the session 6G use cases and societal values - including aspects of sustainability, security and spectrum on the 3rd of February between 9:00 and 12:00.
