- **Event Name**: Summer 2026 OAI Workshop – Open Source in the times of AI Native Networks
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 29 Jun, 2026 at 04:50 pm – Mon, 06 Jul, 2026 at 11:30 pm
- **Event Description**: We are pleased to announce the Summer 2026 OAI Workshop – Open Source in the times of AI Native Networks.About this EventThis workshop presents an opportunity to pause and reflect on the role of open source at the time of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in cellular wireless.OpenAirInterface (OAI) believes that open source creates value through collaboration and embracing the flexibility required to support a wide range of users and use cases. Its role in the emerging 6G systems is to build reference designs in sync with, and in support of, the ongoing standardization in 3GPP. OAI encourages building emulation tools for large-scale experimentation at a time when 6G/AI engines desperately need data for training as well as validation.This edition of the OAI workshop will explore where open source creates value—and where it does not.The workshop will bring together stakeholders from governments, academia, and industry to explore these questions and showcase how the community is advancing open, interoperable, and high-performance cellular networks.The event is intended for those working with OAI and its community—whether developing features, integrating components, running experiments, or deploying solutions—as well as for those looking to engage more deeply with the platform. It also welcomes strategic thinkers with a vision for open source in the 5G/6G industry.
