Webinar Recap: 6G-SANDBOX Unveiled – Experimentation, Platforms & Technical Insights
We are pleased to announce the successful completion of our two-day webinar, 6G-SANDBOX Unveiled, which showcased the latest developments, platform capabilities, and experimental breakthroughs of the 6G-SANDBOX project. The event brought together a strong and highly engaged audience from across the global 6G research and innovation ecosystem.
Day 1 focused on the foundations of the 6G-SANDBOX platform, introducing the trial network concept and ease of experimentation, along with a comprehensive platform overview. Participants were also introduced to the role of the Digital Twin, highlighting how virtualized representations of the network support design, validation, and optimization of advanced 6G experimentation workflows.
Day 2 was dedicated to Experimentation Results & Technical Insights, presenting a series of in-depth technical sessions, including:
- Experimentation Results (Part A): PHY Layer and Propagation
- Experimentation Results (Part B): Programmable and Scalable O-RAN Networks
- Experimentation Results (Part C): Application-Oriented Results
- Towards 6G KPIs: Calibration and Measurement Results
These sessions showcased concrete experimental outcomes, key findings, and lessons learned from real experimentation activities, followed by an interactive Q&A session that further demonstrated the strong engagement of the audience.
Both webinar days featured interactive elements, including live poll throughout the sessions and dedicated live Q&A discussions at the end of each day. The level of engagement was exceptional, and we sincerely thank all participants for their strong presence, insightful questions, and constructive discussions.
The webinar featured expert presenters from the 6G-SANDBOX consortium:
- Michael Dieudonne, Keysight
- Pedro Merino Gomez, University of Malaga
- Adam Flizikowski, IS-Wireless
- Bjorn Riemer, Fraunhofer FOKUS
- Dimitris Tsolkas, Fogus
- Joao Ferreira, Keysight
- Juan Torres Arjona, Nokia
- Matteo Pagin, Keysight
The event attracted more than 250 unique attendees, representing more than 300 unique organizations, demonstrating strong interest from academia, industry, and the wider 6G community.

Your Gateway to 6G Innovation: Discover the 6G-SANDBOX Project
Our project coordinator, Michael Dieudonne, just before our 2-day webinar, gives an overview of the project.
‘The 6G-SANDBOX Project is a cornerstone of Europe’s strategy to advance next-generation wireless systems. Funded by the European Commission through the SNS JU program, this initiative provides a robust environment for experimentation, integrating diverse platforms located in Athens, Berlin, Malaga, and Oulu. In this video, Michael Dieudonne explains the project’s objectives, from defining architectural frameworks and KPIs to conducting real-world trials on technologies such as non-terrestrial networks (NTN), reflective intelligent surfaces (RIS), FR3 frequency bands, and deterministic networking. With open participation and collaborative plugfests, the 6G-SANDBOX project is paving the way for groundbreaking research and industry engagement. Discover how you can join and contribute to this transformative journey toward 6G.’
