5G ecosystem: A first major convention in Morocco
The launch of 5G is highly anticipated in Morocco given its potential to support the socio-economic development of the country. Raising awareness of the advantages and challenges of this technology of the future will be of great use to Moroccan actors, both public and private. It is in this spirit that the “5G Event Morocco (5GEM) 2022” will take place in Rabat on December 7 and 8.
The organization of this scientific and technical event is initiated by the Moroccan company Beamtel with the support of some partners, among others, the Finnish group Nokia. “This is the first major convention in Morocco and Africa around the 5G ecosystem”, says Tibari Jlil, General Manager of Beamtel and also president of the convention. According to him, this event has a double goal. The first aims to “contribute to the development of the business climate relating to the 5G ecosystem by presenting innovative business models and providing vertical expertise to companies in this ecosystem”, and also to “promote a proactive vision in the plans training to develop Moroccan skills in the field of state-of-the-art technologies” . This convention will provide an opportunity for international experts who will participate to discuss the role of 5G technology in the development of smart industries (industry 4.0), and also offer new horizons for the governance of industrial management, said the boss of Beamtel.
This technology will also have to play a leading role in the development of the automotive industry, connected medicine, energy systems, and the Cloud, added Tibari Jlil. As such, the General Manager of Beamtel recalled that unlike previous generations dedicated to individuals, 5G was developed to improve the performance and productivity of critical machines and of the connected industry.
It should also be noted that this convention will be attended by senior officials from Moroccan and foreign institutions having a connection with the sector, including Philippe Herbert, president of the 5G Industrial Mission at the ministry responsible for digital technologies in France, Michel Combot, The Managing Director of the French Telecoms Federation (FFT), and Dr. Muneer Zuhdi, Head of Cognitive Cities & Industries MEA Enterprise, at Nokia (Mena Region).
