Ericsson is bringing enterprise-focused connectivity expertise to Automate 2026, with technical content that links mobile network capabilities to manufacturing and operational use cases. The page highlights topics such as Artificial intelligence, 6G, Differentiated connectivity, 5G Monetization, Autonomous networks, Trust and Security, Network APIs, and Next-Generation Mission Critical Communications.
A specific highlight is real-time manufacturing excellence through Private 5G and edge computing in action, positioned as an on-site discussion. The technology themes also reference network evolution items like Network slicing, 5G RAN, Open RAN, Cloud native approaches, and CIO/operations-relevant connectivity enablement concepts such as Private networks, OSS/BSS, and 5G Core.
The professional focus is aimed at connectivity decision-makers and technical stakeholders working across service delivery, enterprise connectivity, and network exposure or standardization efforts—particularly those evaluating how private wireless deployments and edge capabilities support industrial requirements. Ericsson’s on-site activities include scheduled talks and a room-based session at the Automate Show Theatre (Booth 2884), plus a Tuesday session in Room: S404bc.
