SUMMARY:National Initiatives:  Dutch National Initiative on 6G
DESCRIPTION:The Dutch National Initiative on 6G: the Netherlands’ achievements in the Future Network Services (FNS) program\nIntroduction:\nThe Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU) is at the forefront of driving innovation in next-generation communication technologies and services across Europe. At the same time\, various national initiatives in Europe are actively advancing 6G technologies and smart services. The SNS JU plays a pivotal role in fostering collaboration between these national initiatives and SNS projects by facilitating the exchange of best practices\, research findings\, and results. \nAs highlighted in the recently published SNS R&I Work Programme 2025 (SNS WP 2025)\, the SNS JU actively encourages the integration of results and experimental platforms from national initiatives into its calls. This approach ensures that Europe remains competitive in the global technology race by effectively pooling expertise and resources across national and EU levels. Furthermore\, it supports the EU’s strategic goals of digital sovereignty and technological independence by fostering a cohesive and collaborative research and innovation ecosystem. \nIn alignment with these goals\, and as part of the SNS CSA CO-OP project\, 6G-IA is organizing a series of webinars where various national initiatives will showcase their key achievements and share information about their experimental platforms. \nThe first webinar in this series is scheduled to take place on 8th May 2025\, from 11:00 to 12:30 CET\, featuring an in-depth presentation of the Dutch 6G R&I activities and platforms as a part of their national program\, Future Network Services (FNS).
