BroadWay coordinator David Lund will deliver a keynote speech titled “The European BroadWay to BroadNet: Pan European Public Safety Mobile Broadband” to kickoff the CommsConnect 2019 event in Melbourne, Australia on 27 November 2019.

Presentation Description

An update on the BroadWay programme will be given, which has concluded a Request for Tender process on 22 August 2019. BroadWay is a Pre-Commercial Procurement programme which remains competitive throughout, with the goal to incentivise the development of the best mobile broadband solutions. BroadWay will spend ~€9m and consists of 3 competitive phases: Design, Prototype and Pilot. BroadWay will contract up to 5 supply teams for design, and will down select the best 3 for prototype and 2 for pilot. Final procurement of BroadNet will follow, leading to pan-European Operational Mobility for responders in the timeframe 2024/25. Operational mobility will enable responders to use mobile broadband wherever they in Europe, collaborate with other responders wherever they are in Europe and whenever they need to.
