Innovative Optical andWireless NetworkVision 2030: A Smarter,Better World For All

IOWN Global Forum (IOWN GF)aims to bring together like-mindedcompanies to create a smarter worldexperienced in the daily lives ofbillions of people. Its vision by 2030 isto create an innate and pervasivenext generation communicationinfrastructure addressing criticalsocietal challenges that has ambientintelligence tuned to people'simmediate environment, enrichingend-user experience.

Collaborating among best-in-classpartners across industries, IOWN GFwill focus on a number of challengesfacing society including our ever-increasing power consumption andthe demands of data transfer, storingand processing.

IOWN GF’s Vision 2030 seeks toremove barriers to achieve a smarterworld by looking beyond the currenttechnologies to build a newcommunications infrastructurecapable of offering new services andfostering sustainability. True successwill be achieved when people useand benefit from the IOWNtechnology without even realizing it.
