5G Berlin Association
Your Benefits
We provide a proven multi-vendor testbed with strong partners and fast decision-making – innovation without detours.
One Organization, Three Ways to Benefit
Collaboration
joint working groups, demonstrators, and research projects
Testbed
access to 5G test field for testing new technologies and applications in urban areas
Testing & Validation
plugfests, component catalogue, real-world tested documentation, visibility of test reports
Collaboration:
Developing Together Instead of Working in Isolation
Stakeholders work in isolation on similar challenges
Providers and users struggle to connect
Innovations remain trapped in individual projects
New solutions face slow market adoption
Shared expertise through thematic working groups
Stronger connections across innovation ecosystems
Faster innovation through joint demonstrators
Connecting companies for joint R&D-projects
Testbed:
From Concept to Integrated Solution
Complex, costly test infrastructure setup
Lack of testing limits innovation success
Missing use cases and requirements limit proper testing
Real-world feedback often comes too late in development
Reduce costs with shared test infrastructure
Validate solutions faster end to end
Accelerate adoption through partner demonstrations
Testing practical innovations in an existing test bed
Testing, Certification and Plug Fests:
Increasing Visibility and Robustness through User-Oriented Testing
Multi-vendor interoperability needs to be verified
Users lack guidance when choosing technologies
Unproven solutions struggle to gain visibility
Datasheets don’t cover use case performance
Make informed decisions based on practical testing and detailed results
Validate interoperability through E2E tests and plug fests
Find proven components with experience-based data
Accelerate adoption through reports and blueprints
