Experts from the mobility, connectivity and teleoperation industries had a fruitful discussion about the future of mobility, the challenges of connected mobility in Spain and Europe, and how the 5GMED project is facing them with 5G and many other technologies.

It was joined by José López Luque, 5GMED Coordinator from Cellnex; María Paula Caycedo, Head of Innovation Hub South at EIT Urban Mobility; and Laura Sanz, CCAM Strategy Lead at i2CAT. It was moderated by Marjorie Grassler, European Projects Communication Executive at Mobile World Capital Barcelona Foundation and introduced with a keynote by Federico Ruíz, National 5G Observatory Responsable at the same Foundation.
