Engagements and Events
Throughout 2023, the NANCY project actively participated in several key events to showcase our research and foster collaboration. At the EuCNC & 6G Summit in Gothenburg (June 6-9), our consortium partners presented NANCY’s advancements, engaging with industry leaders to discuss future network technologies. Later in the year, during the IEEE Future Networks World Forum (November 13-15), our partner from MetaMind Innovations delivered a presentation titled “Elevating 5G Network Security: A profound examination of Federated Learning Aggregation Strategies for Attack Detection,” highlighting NANCY’s contributions to network security. Additionally, at InfoCom World 2023 (December 14), we shared insights on telecommunications advancements, emphasizing NANCY’s role in shaping the future of wireless networks. Finally, we had three Plenary Meetings with the 3rd Plenary Meeting being held in Athens, providing a platform for consortium members to align on project milestones and strategies, strengthening internal collaboration.
As we move forward, the NANCY project remains committed to pioneering advancements in wireless communication. We extend our gratitude to all partners and stakeholders for their unwavering support and collaboration.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue shaping the future of secure and intelligent wireless networks: NANCY Project.
