The Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Technical University of Dresden (TUD) are creating a 6G research hub. The Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF) is providing 70 million euros in funding for 6G-life, a joint project of the two Excellence Universities. 6G-life will develop technologies for the new wireless communications standard and make an important contribution to Germany’s digital sovereignty.
The future wireless communication standard 6G will play a central role in the digital transformation. To participate in this transformation at the global level, the BMBF is providing a total of up to 250 million euros in funding for four 6G research hubs. In the 6G-life project, TUM and TUD will work together to shape these future technologies. Around 40 senior researchers at the two Excellence Universities will be involved in the project, which will receive 70 million euros in funding. “With these resources, we will build on the 6G Future Lab Bavaria initiative at TUM, supported by the Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs, and join forces with TUD,” says TUM President Thomas F. Hofmann. “Together we will help to shape the wireless technology of the future.”Read more.
