The moderator will be Claudio Velardi, Chairman of FOR (Fondazione Ottimisti e Razionali).

“With TourFor5G we want to continue our commitment to raise awareness about fifth generation technology and the importance of digital infrastructure in the regions. We are also interested in explaining how 5G is a key factor for enabling more sustainable ecosystems and transforming our cities into smart cities where cutting-edge services, innovation and attention to the local community’s needs will become the supporting assets of urban development,” stated Giovanni Ferigo, CEO of INWIT.

The TourFor5G events will all be in hybrid mode.
