IWCE 2018

The International Wireless Communications Expo

IWCE offers the most comprehensive education program in the industry with over 160 workshops, short courses, power sessions, town hall meetings, and training.

Conference tracks will cover topics including FirstNet, 911 & Public Safety, Interoperability & Parallel Networks, Spectrum & Signal Optimization, Transformative Tech, Push-to-Talk, Smart Cities & Critical Infrastructure, Planning & Preparation, and Cybersecurity. Additional educational opportunities will be offered through co-located events, IWCE's Network Infrastructure Forum, and the ETA International Education Forum.

Two new programs will also be held:

• The Women of Wireless Workshop offers a series of presentations about the successful habits of effective women leaders, the successes and challenges of being at the table as "pioneers", and how women in tech are timely and relevant.
• The Attracting Millennials to a Rewarding Career in Wireless Course covers the graying of the wireless workforce. Industry emphasis on IP has created a gap in wireless education, while more technologies demand wireless and RF access. 

Special events include keynote presentations from Thaddeus Arroyo, CEO, of AT&T Business, and Michael Poth, the CEO, FirstNet, to discuss the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) network and the progress the network has made over the past year. The IWCE General Session, entitled "Rethinking Wireless", will discuss the changing wireless landscape and will provide an overview of many of the key concepts of modern wireless networks and what they all mean to current wireless and radio networks.
