5G and the Future of Wireless Connectivity

Join us for Philly Tech Week at Pennovation Works!
One of America’s most populous cities with more than six million people in its metropolitan area, Philadelphia is both traditional and cutting-edge. As demand for mobile data grows exponentially, Philadelphia’s existing wireless infrastructure bears an increasingly heavy burden.
Join Crown Castle, the nation’s largest provider of shared communications infrastructure, and others for a discussion around the importance of wireless connectivity and how infrastructure solutions like fiber optic cable and small cell technology will enhance wireless coverage and capacity in the City of Brotherly Love.
Our expert panel will offer unique perspectives on how critical wireless connectivity is for Philadelphia today and in the future. Panelists will also explore how fiber optic cable and small cell technology will pave the way for next-generation networks such as 5G and power the Internet of Things (IoT).
