c21-virtual was derived from EMP, which since 2002 had organised roundtable style satellite communications focused conferences across Asia, Africa, the Middle East, North America, South America, and Europe, more than 150 live events in total. The c21-virtual series of virtual conferences was formed in early 2020 to analyse hyperconverged terrestrial and non-terrestrial hybrid connectivity solutions for planet-wide, ubiquitous connectivity., with a spotlight on selected industry applications.
The “5th Epoch Series” of virtual conferences, will emphasise the impact of New-Age technologies such as AI, virtualisation, SDN, 5G / 6G, the Metaverse and the convergence of technology and human experience on established c21-virtual programmes, and the impact of this on future communications networks.
