India Launches 3rd International Bharat 6G Symposium in New Delhi
The 3rd International Bharat 6G Symposium 2026 kicked off today at Yashobhoomi in Dwarka, New Delhi, under the auspices of the Bharat 6G Alliance (B6GA). Inaugurated by Shri Jyotiraditya M. Scindia, the Union Minister for Communications and Development of North Eastern Region, this symposium serves as a pivotal platform for uniting various stakeholders, including policymakers, tech alliances, telecom operators, industry leaders, and academia, to catalyze the growth of next-generation communication technologies and bolster India’s 6G ambitions.
Strengthening Collaborations through MoUs
The inaugural ceremony highlighted significant progress with the signing of five new Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) aimed at enhancing global and industry collaboration. The partners include GSMA, one6G Association, GTI Alliance Ltd, 6G Industry Forum (6GIF), and VoICE. These agreements signify the Bharat 6G Alliance’s commitment to fostering international cooperation in technology development, research, innovation, and standards for future networks.
