#TRAI RECOMMENDATIONS ON ‘ ENCOURAGING INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES, SERVICES, USE CASES, AND BUSINESS MODELS THROUGH REGULATORY SANDBOX IN DIGITAL COMMUNICATION SECTOR' Recently, TRAI released its recommendations on regulatory sandbox (RS) for innovation in digital communication. This initiative was taken by TRAI in conjunct with a #DoT reference, stakeholder inputs, and the Telecom Act's definition of an RS. The proposed framework by TRAI provides for using cross-sector cooperation in carrying out RS testing with the help of various agencies and other ministries. The said framework, it is hoped, would give the Digital Communication industry's startup ecosystem, an access to the real network environments and other relevant data of telecom network to help test the reliability/ruggedness of new applications before making them commercial. The #TRAI press statement stated “In view of new technological developments in #5G/6G, M2M communications, AI, the IoT, VR, and others, there is a need to provide an environment in which new technologies, services, use cases and business models can be tested in live networks, or existing functions or processes can be refined.” It further explains that “Regulatory Sandbox (RS) makes real-time but regulated access to telecom network and customer resources, something that is not possible in conventional methods of lab testing or pilots.” According to TRAI, provisioning such a unique framework for live testing in India will, in coming times, encourage a greater number of entrepreneurs to develop optimised solutions for the digital communication industry. #startups #DoT #TRAI #TelecomIndustry #Sandbox #Telecom #6G

Thrilled to be part of CEI-Sphere, an innovative initiative that has just launched! 🎉 Building on the foundations of UNLOCK-CEI, CEI-Sphere aims to foster an open, interoperable, and competitive ecosystem that supports the growth of Cloud-Edge-IoT Large-Scale Pilots (LSPs) across Europe. About the Large-Scale Pilots 🔹 The LSPs will provide relevant, hyper-distributed, scalable next-generation Cloud to Edge IoT solutions to a heterogenous European industry that must compete in global markets. 🔹 Key to the success of the LSPs is their ability to address the very specific demands of each of Europe’s core industry and stimulate cooperation as a lever of future competitiveness. From meta-OS common architectures to decentralised intelligence and swarm computing, the challenge will be to involve the full supply chain and encourage the participation of new solution providers, including startups and SMEs, to test robustness and fitness-for-purpose. 👉  CEI-Sphere will play a supportive role in aligning the European Commission and the LSP community to gain in-depth insights into use-cases, their maturity levels, value chains, and market needs ➡️ Identify overarching challenges and synergies that can accelerate outcomes ➡️ Foster open ecosystems through interoperability ➡️ Ensure the robustness, scalability, and global standardisation of CEI solutions ➡️ Integrate with other deployment drivers, including Gen AI, regulatory frameworks like the AI Act and Digital Markets Act, and environmental objectives ✅ We will host a hackathon to test the applicability and boundaries of open and further define the boundaries of open/closed source in the Large-Scale Pilots development Learn more here 🔗 https://lnkd.in/djYBv3hR Stay tuned for updates on this insightful initiative! 🙌 #CEISphere #CloudEdgeIoT #LargeScalePilots BluSpecs AIOTI IDC4EU Trust-IT Services COMMpla srl Trialog VDI/VDE Innovation + Technik GmbH INSIDE Industry Association EUCloudEdgeIoT

They managed to thrive in the hardware ecosystem since 2017 and untill now, providing the following to the table, 1- Hardware and Software Solutions: They create advanced technology solutions (AI, IoT, Robotics) for different businesses. You can consider them a technical arm/partner or conaider them a technical venture studio :) . 2- Engineering Consultancy: Help businesses with digital transformation and technical strategy, offering consultation services to technical teams, incubators, accelerators, and investors. 3- Community Engagement: Through Sector B5 , they actually manage community activities like incubators and different targeted programs to support innovation. 4- Research and Development (R&D):They collaborate with research institutes to implement or be a research partners in joint-funded projects across various sectors. If you needed any technical support to your business, they should be your go to place :).

As DeepTech Alliance is preparing the 4th edition of the Advanced Manufacturing/Industry 4.0 program, I find myself back in Barcelona for the IOT Solution World Congress While being back in Barcelona- where I lived and studied back in 2007-2008 is a treat, I am here on a mission looking to add new valuable partners to our corporate community. Advanced Manufacturing and Industry 4.0 is an interesting area, because it is not about what you do, but how you do them. As such, it usually not core to what the corporate is doing. Getting it right - integrating Deep Tech from outside the corporate - through a Open Innovation setup, will create a significant competitive advantage! If you are in Open Innovation, Corporate Venturing or Tech Scouting and you miss a knowledgeable community to discuss methodology, to learn from and to bounce your ideas off on, DeepTech Alliance could be for you. If you too are lucky enough to be in Barcelona this week - let’s talk! Are you curious about the network, startup deal flow and partnership opportunities PM me and let’s set up a short intro to the Alliance. #OpenInnovation #CVC #DeepTech #Industry4.0
