6:00 pm – 6:30 pm: A Cross-Industry View of In-Building Wireless Success
Each industry vertical faces unique challenges when it comes to connectivity: hospitals must prioritize secure, interference-free communication for patient care; universities require high-density coverage for learning and research; transit systems need uninterrupted service across sprawling and often subterranean facilities; and commercial properties must balance tenant experience with long-term ROI. This session will highlight practical deployment strategies, technology choices, business models (including neutral host and shared infrastructure), and lessons learned from real-world implementations.
