The primary objective of B6GA is to understand the business and societal needs of 6G beyond technology requirements, foster consensus on these needs and promote high-impact open research and development (R&D) initiatives, the Ministry of Communications stated in a release.
B6GA aims to bring together Indian startups, companies, and the manufacturing ecosystem to establish consortia that drive the design, development and deployment of 6G technologies in India. By accelerating standards-related patent creation within the country and actively contributing to international standardisation organizations such as 3GPP and ITU, B6GA seeks to position India at the forefront of 6G innovation.
Another key goal of B6GA is to facilitate market access for Indian telecom technology products and services, enabling the country to emerge as a global leader in 6G technology.
