Building the Metaverse City: A 6G-Enabled Digital Twin Platform I had the honor of speaking on Panel at IEEE Virtual Conference on Communications: "6G for Connected Smart Cities in the Metaverse Age" at the IEEE International Conference on 6G and Smart Cities. The session explored how 6G, Digital Twins, and the Metaverse can work together to revolutionize urban development, making cities more immersive, efficient, and connected. From citizen engagement and virtual tourism to emergency response training and collaborative urban planning, the potential for innovation is truly inspiring. A special thank you to our incredible moderator, Prof. Periklis Chatzimisios, for guiding the conversation so effectively, and to my fellow panelists for sharing their insights and expertise: Narcís Cardona, Isabel De Peuter-Rutten, Marios Nicolaou. We discussed critical topics like AR/VR/MR, edge computing, network slicing, security challenges, and societal impacts of 6G-enabled smart cities in the metaverse age. This panel, endorsed by one6G Association, Euromersive , and the HORIZON-2022-WIDERA project MetaCities Excellence Hub in South-Eastern Europe, was a testament to how collaboration and innovation are driving the future of urban living. I’m excited to see how 6G infrastructure, digital twins, and the metaverse continue to reshape our cities, offering new business models, immersive experiences, and data-driven services. The future is closer than we think! Let’s keep innovating and building smarter, more connected urban futures together! https://lnkd.in/giJTtVm3 #6G #Metaverse #DigitalTwins #SmartCities #IEEE #UrbanInnovation #IEEE #Technology #EdgeComputing #Networking #Innovation #FutureOfCities #DigitalTransformation #Collaboration #AR #VR #MR SmartAvatar B.V.
