About this event

Science & Tech • High Tech

Join us for an exclusive event hosted by the University of Sheffield AMRC North West to celebrate the culmination of the groundbreaking FoFoRAN (Factory of the Future Open RAN) project!

This initiative supported by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) is part of an £88 million UK Government R&D investment and has been at the forefront of exploring how manufacturers of all sizes can leverage the power of Open Radio Access Networks (Open RAN).

This event offers a unique opportunity to:

  • Witness cutting-edge 5G use cases in a real manufacturing environment. The FoFoRAN project has developed 6-8 compelling use cases that demonstrate the tangible benefits of 5G technology.
  • Gain insights from industry leaders. Hear directly from senior leads at AMRC North West and key project partners.
  • Explore collaboration opportunities. Connect with experts from aql, BAE Systems, Dassault Systèmes, Productive Machines, and Safenetics, as well as affiliate partners from the Royal Air Force and Telent.
  • Understand the future of mobile network technology. Learn how Open RAN is increasing the resilience of the UK mobile network and fostering competition within the 5G telecoms supply chain.
