The conference will be a two-day event and will cover a wide range of topics, from specific national regulatory steps in the past year, through 5G research and development to supply chain security assessments. The conference will end on Thursday with the closing remarks of the Minister of Foreign Affairs Tomáš Petříček and subsequently by the Director of NÚKIB Karel Řehka.

The Prague 5G Security Conference is the world's leading forum for discussing the risks associated with the roll-out of 5G infrastructure. Last year’s  conference was concluded with the publication of the so-called Prague Proposals, which summarized the basic recommendations for the secure launch of the 5th generation mobile networks.

More than 1,100 participants are invited to this year's conference, including representatives of governments, research institutions and major operators. Over 50 speakers from various fields related to 5G will take the floor during the conference.
