SNS JU 6G-PATH, 6G-SANDBOX, and FIDAL projects Webinar Series – Topic 2: Education, Media & Entertainment
The 6G-PATH, 6G-SANDBOX, and FIDAL projects, funded under the European Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU), organise a webinar series to highlight the innovations delivered by third-party projects funded through Open Calls.
The webinar series will focus on four verticals:
- Topic 1. Industry, Mobility & Smart Cities (passed)
- Topic 2. Education, Media & Entertainment
- Topic 3: PPDR & Emergency Scenarios
- Topic 4: Health
Topic 2 Webinar: Education, Media & Entertainment
- Date & Time: Wednesday 23 April 2026 from 11:00 to 12:00 (CEST)
The 6G-PATH, 6G-SANDBOX, and FIDAL projects, funded under the European Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU), organise a webinar series to highlight the innovations delivered by third-party projects funded through Open Calls. The webinar on the 23rd April will focus on experiments and implementation related to Education, Media & Entertainment, along the following presentations:

The journey towards 6G has commenced with the global deployment of 5G. However, there is still a need for higher efficiency and better performance. The EU-funded 6G-PATH project aims to address this by integrating new tools and products from EU companies with 5G/6G technologies, while measuring relevant Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Key Value Indicators (KVIs). The project will use seven testbeds to implement ten use cases across four verticals: Health, Education, Smart Cities, and Farming. It will allocate its budget to the Future Standardisation and Trials Programme (FSTP), incorporating two new pilot sites, ten additional technologies, and 30 new use cases through open calls. Collaboration with other stream-B and stream-C projects will facilitate the deployment and testing of innovations, with the results shared to foster further innovation in the field.

The 6G-SANDBOX project brings a complete and modular facility for the European experimentation ecosystem (in line and under the directions set by SNS JU), which is expected to support for the next decade technology and research validation processes needed in the pathway towards 6G. The 6G-SANDBOX Trial Networks incorporate infrastructures distributed in EU (namely in Malaga, Athens, Berlin and Oulu) and offer to third parties (including experimenters from open calls) automated experimentation capabilities through a rich and extensible toolbox. Meant to create tangible and long-term impact, the 6G KPIs and KVIs that will be quantified with the facility, will be released to any interested party; while the set of developments and APIs that will be produced, will feed an open repository as an initial step to move the contributions and the lessons learned beyond the project boarders and define a European 6G library.

In telecommunications, the onset of 5G technology and its advantages have led to expanded and enhanced effort put into the development and evolution of evolved 5G and 6G technologies. However, despite this effort, the current infrastructure isn’t fit to handle the needs of these future technologies nor allow them to run at efficient capacities. The EU funded FIDAL project aims to take on this challenge by developing, testing and demonstrating innovative infrastructure fit for supporting evolved 5G and the arrival of 6G. What’s more, the project will be accessible and open to third parties allowing specialists and players to test their innovations and advancements utilising evolved 5G and 6G.
