■Introduction 10:00~10:15 <Title> Mobile Computing Promotion Consortium (MCPC) Activities (for Participants) <Abstract> 【About MCPC】 MCPC's three practical activities (technical activities, dissemination and awareness-raising, and human resource development) are accelerating and expanding the DX promotion business through the mobile utilization of member companies. (1) Technical activities: We are working on standardization and connection verification of interfaces between WAN/LAN/NFC and a wide range of wireless networks, and have formulated specifications and guidelines. We also perform Bluetooth connection verification, charging safety certification of smartphones etc. (2) Dissemination and awareness-raising: Through various dissemination and enlightenment activities such as the MCPC Awards (publication of case studies, etc.), we are striving to form and expand the DX market. (3) Human resource development: We are working on certification tests and human resource development workshops for ""mobile system technology"", ""wireless IoT planner"", and ""IoT system technology"", which are indispensable for DX promotion. <Speaker> Mobile Computing Promotion Consortium (MCPC) Secretary-General Masahiro Hataguchi ■Session(1) 10:15~10:45 <Title> Initiatives to Create New Services in the 5G/Beyond 5G Era <Abstract> Rakuten Mobile is working with corporations, universities and local governments on joint 5G research projects that utilizes its own fully virtualized cloud native mobile network. It has also launched the ""Rakuten Mobile Partner Program"" to jointly create new service experiences, and is engaged in demonstration experiments and research towards launching these services. In this session, we will introduce the co-creation efforts and future prospects of the Rakuten Group, utilizing its wide range of more than 70 services and group assets, as part of its activities aimed at creating innovative services in the 5G/Beyond 5G era. <Speaker> Rakuten Mobile, Inc. Department Manager, 5G Division Business Solution Planning Department Soh Masuko ■Session(2) 10:45~11:15 <Title> SoftBank's goal of a hyper-digitalized society <Abstract> The 5G area is expanding in Japan, and 5G services are entering a phase of full-scale deployment. This presentation will explain how society will be transformed in the future and SoftBank's vision for the realization of an hyper-digital society, including 5G/6G technologies and DX case studies. <Speaker> SoftBank Corp. Senior Director, Network Planning Management Division Tomokazu Asakura ■Session(3) 11:15~11:45 <Title> 5G evolution and 6G powered by IOWN <Abstract> Study, development and standardization for technologies toward the evolution of 5G are ongoing, taking into account issues in early 5G services and emerging market needs. In parallel, research focused on technologies and services for 6G is accelerating throughout the world. NTT DOCOMO is very aggressive for 5G Evolution and 6G. And NTT group is promoting IOWN, Innovative Optical and Wireless Network. Both of 6G and IOWN are targeting common future communication society in 2030s. In this presentation, our vision and latest activities for 5G Evolution and 6G powered by IOWN will be explained. <Speaker> NTT DOCOMO, Inc. R&D Innovation Division, Chief Technology Architect Takehiro Nakamura ■Session(4) 11:45~12:15 <Title> KDDI's Initiatives for 5G/IoT and Beyond 5G <Abstract> Since the launch of 5G, various efforts have been made in the corporate domain, especially in the industrial field, for DX applications. 5G SA will be available in 2022, and 5G networks will evolve from 5G NSA to 5G SA. In this presentation, I will talk about the evolution of networks from 5G SA to Beyond 5G and the direction of DX utilization with case studies. <Speaker> KDDI CORPORATION General Manger / 5G and IoT Product Management Department Kazuhiro Noguchi
