“Open RAN’s potential for technology innovation and industry transformation has been a focal point for ADI and MWC this year. Open RAN’s greater interoperability increases choice in radio-access network gear, accelerating innovation and reducing cost. To achieve these goals, however, a robust ecosystem with an informed regulatory environment supportive of Open RAN goals will be critical. The ORPC plays an important role in facilitating the necessary relationships and discussions among industry participants and governmental organizations,” said Andy McLean, Corporate Vice President, Communications and Cloud at ADI.

“Open RAN Policy Coalition members believe that with continued support for policies that lower barriers to entry, promote innovation, increase competition, and reduce costs, we can create a thriving marketplace for 5G and beyond. Key in our endeavors is fostering public-private cooperation towards the shared goal of an ecosystem that is diverse, resilient, and secure. This informal event presented a wonderful opportunity to connect with our members and partners to share ideas as we work together to promote open and interoperable networks,” said Diane Rinaldo, Executive Director, Open RAN Policy Coalition.
