The Wireless Infrastructure Association issued a statement on the U.S. Department of Commerce National Telecommunications and Information Administration’s Call to Action for 6G Leadership and Security. The statement frames wireless network development as a factor in economic competitiveness, technological leadership, and national security.

In the statement, Patrick Halley, President and CEO of the Wireless Infrastructure Association, addressed the administration’s decision to launch the 6G initiative and connect it to national security and wireless networks.

Halley’s remarks referenced requirements that include strong wireless networks, faster infrastructure deployment, continued private investment, and a robust pipeline of high-band spectrum. The statement also described efforts to establish global leadership in 6G as involving action alongside investment in infrastructure deployment.

Halley said, “WIA applauds NTIA Administrator Arielle Roth and the Trump Administration for launching this important 6G initiative and recognizing that America’s economic competitiveness, technological leadership, and national security depend on strong wireless networks. Establishing global leadership in 6G will require both innovation and action: faster infrastructure deployment, continued private investment, and a robust pipeline of high-band spectrum. The wireless infrastructure industry stands ready to build the networks that will turn this vision into reality.”

The Wireless Infrastructure Association represents businesses that build, develop, own, and operate the nation’s wireless infrastructure, and the group advocates for widespread, responsible deployment to enable connectivity and other outcomes cited in the statement.
