Chiara Mazzone discusses the importance of making 6G technology sustainable by integrating environmental and energy efficiency considerations throughout the technology's lifecycle in the SNS JU's research and innovation projects.

What is the green digital transition? How can it, along with 6G, support sustainability?

What do we mean by “green digital transition”? How can the green digital transition and 6G help the three dimensions of sustainability? Ilias Iakovidis, Adviser of Digital aspects of green transition at DG CONNECT, European Commission delves into the three dimensions of sustainability, the nexus between the green and the digital transitions and explore how the next generation of connectivity can play a role in achieving sustainability goals with several concrete examples.
