Generations of Mobile Standards

Short interview with the ETSI DG

Dec 19, 2024

As ETSI’s head of delegation in 3GPP, Jan Ellsberger not only leads ICT standards development in Europe, but also sits at the top table of global standards making for next generation mobile.

In this short video interview we ask Jan about his first six months as the ETSI Director General and about the progress he has seen at the recent 3GPP TSG meetings in Madrid. We also discuss the potential of emerging technologies for 3GPP and ETSI as the planning for 6G gets underway.

 

Jan Ellsberger speaks about his long association with ETSI and his fifteen year engagement with 3GPP. The conversation also touched on the key takeaways from this week’s meetings and on some of the ways that ETSI members – in partnership with 3GPP’s industry members from around the globe - are bringing in the next generation of features for the system.
