    Wi-Fi has evolved far beyond its traditional role as a wireless access technology. As enterprises modernize, AI workloads proliferate, and operators pursue converged connectivity strategies, Wi-Fi is increasingly becoming a strategic platform underpinning digital transformation.

    With Wi-Fi 7 scaling globally, Wi-Fi 8 development accelerating, and the 6 GHz ecosystem continuing to mature, the industry's focus is shifting from speed and coverage towards reliability, automation, resilience, and business outcomes. At the same time, AI-powered network operations, OpenWiFi architectures, OpenRoaming, and convergence with private 5G are creating new opportunities for service providers, enterprises, venues, municipalities, and technology vendors.

    Join RCR Wireless News' Wi-Fi Forum to hear from esteemed industry leaders, operators, enterprises, technology innovators, standards bodies, and policymakers on how Wi-Fi is evolving into intelligent infrastructure for the next generation of connectivity.
