White Paper on 6G Drivers and the UN SDGs

Understand

The commercial launch of 6G communications systems and United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, UN SDGs, are both targeted for 2030.

• 6G communications is expected to boost global growth and productivity, create new business models and transform many aspects of society.
• The UN SDGs are a way of framing opportunities and challenges of a desirable future world and cover topics as broad as ending poverty, gender equality, climate change and smart cities.
• The relationship between these potentially mutually reinforcing forces is currently under-defined.
