SCF Rural & Remote Summit
25 July 2018 - 26 July 2018
REGISTER NOW
The rural opportunity is changing. Are you prepared?
The Summit will discuss many of the challenges for rural deployment – related to technology, deployment and business – and the solutions which are emerging to address these.
A chance to learn, partner and profit
Mobile industry events tend to skim over rural and remote markets, so this is a really valuable chance to learn more about the technical solutions, to discuss practical challenges with experts in the field, and to meet potential partners. If you target rural communities and enterprises, or hope to, this will provide unique and invaluable insights into technical and commercial best practice.
You’ll hear about how collaborations are changing the way rural connectivity is being addressed. You’ll meet new players who see new opportunities in 5G-era rural connectivity. You’ll learn about the potential for smart agriculture, e-health, e-government and more. And you’ll find out how 5G and small cells can enable a whole new rural landscape: one where affordable coverage and capacity come with new, truly monetizable services.
The Summit will be hosted by one of the USA’s longest-standing and most successful rural mobile operators, Union Wireless. Founded way back in 1914, Union has focused on wireless communications for the past 25 years, and will share its experiences and challenges in delivering these services in rural Wyoming and Colorado.
The rural oportunity is changing. Find out why and how – and be part of that change – at Small Cell Networks: Changing the Rural Landscape – the 2018 Small Cell Forum Rural Summit.
