Title: "Welcome to the Exponential Era: a 5G Perspective"

Abstract: We are in the exponential era. Digital technologies are changing our daily lives, and we are only at the very beginning of a new World. Nothing will ever be again the same. Among other technologies, it is foreseen that 5G technology will disrupt anything we have known until today. 5G will be a key facilitator for the Internet of Things (IoT), the Tactile Internet, the Internet of Skills and Senses, the Internet of Vehicles, the Connected Intelligences and the Metaworld. We will discuss together about this and other topics during an intense 50-minute interactive session.
