KT joins NATO's defense communications standards dialogue

KT has joined the NATO Wireless Communications Standardization Project (NWCSP) for its ninth meeting, marking the first time a Korean telecom company has participated as a 5G and 6G standardization expert. The four-day event commenced on Monday, hosted by Korea’s Ministry of National Defense and the Telecommunications Technology Association.

Approximately 100 officials from defense and government agencies, along with telecom and standards experts from Korea and around the world, are expected to attend. The primary focus of the discussions will revolve around the application of 5G and 6G technologies in defense scenarios and the establishment of standards for next-generation military communications.

NWCSP is a collaborative initiative between civil and military entities, encompassing government officials and private sector specialists from NATO member and partner nations. The project convenes three times annually, with the prior gathering held in San Diego in May. Throughout the conference, KT will present its expertise in deploying commercial 5G technology for defense applications.
