SAMENA Accelerator to Drive 10 Gigabit Digital Infrastructure Development with Focus on AI and F5G-Advanced
The SAMENA Telecommunications Council will host the highly anticipated SAMENA ACCELERATOR on October 17th, 2024, at the One & Only Mirage in Dubai. The event will center on promoting 10 Gigabit digital infrastructure in the region, under the theme "10Giga Digital Infrastructure: An Imperative in Regional Advancement." The discussions will emphasize the importance of 10 Gigabit network development, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Fixed 5G-Advanced (F5G-A).
The 2024 edition, organized in collaboration with Huawei Technologies, will continue the conversation started at the 2023 SAMENA ACCELERATOR. It will focus on building consensus around accelerating the deployment of 10 Gigabit networks, exploring future broadband infrastructure upgrades, and enhancing digital experiences. The event aims to push the digital transformation agenda across industries, ultimately accelerating the digital economy in the Middle East and Central Asia.
Bocar BA, CEO & Board Member of SAMENA Council, highlighted the strategic collaboration with Huawei as a crucial step in fostering regional digital innovation: “As fixed network technologies evolve, particularly with Fixed 5G-Advanced, we must drive the 10Giga transition while addressing the challenges of rapid deployment and digital transformation.”
With advancements in fiber optics, IPv6 innovations, and AI integration, the SAMENA ACCELERATOR seeks to propel the region’s broadband capabilities, particularly in the GCC markets, where the demand for enhanced broadband speeds and optical-fiber coverage is growing. SAMENA Council encourages industry leaders and professionals to participate in the event to explore opportunities for advancing the region's digital economy.
