New op-ed from President and CEO @AjitPai explores how the World Cup is a “showcase for Wireless and AI,” and why we need more spectrum to lead the innovations that will define the future. Read at @dcexaminer: bit.ly/4pbYhYN.

.@AjitPai, President and CEO, highlighted the importance of Congress restoring spectrum auction authority to stay ahead of competition from countries like China in an interview with @RCPolitics.

Step one in accelerating our spectrum pipeline is finalizing the upper C-Band service rules in the next 60 days. This will give bidders the certainty they need to prepare for the auction, and commercial access in 2030. bit.ly/4vlLXr3

Unlocking the Upper C-Band will fuel massive private-sector investment, creating and supporting millions of high-paying American jobs in infrastructure, tech, and manufacturing.

Congress identified three federal spectrum bands for future commercial availability: 2.7 GHz, 4 GHz, and 7 GHz. To ensure we have the connectivity we need by 2030, we will need to see at least two of these bands auctioned in 2028. More: bit.ly/4vlLXr3

Chairman @BrendanCarrFCC on @CNBC this morning: “We're voting… to open up a huge swath of spectrum in the C-band—create effectively a mid-band “Super Band” of spectrum. And that's gonna be used to drive down prices for consumers… to increase competition.”

From the first wireless phone call to the first nationwide network, wireless keeps America connected. Happy 250th anniversary to the nation that continues to lead 🎉.

Accelerating the spectrum timeline is key to fueling the AI innovation that will define the 21st century economy. Here’s why: 🤝AI is already putting pressure on wireless networks. AI traffic is growing 3X faster than other traffic. According to @Accenture without more spectrum over a third of AI needs could go unmet. 🔥And AI-native networks are scheduled to deploy in 2030. These networks, built with AI, for AI, need large contiguous spectrum blocks. 🌎The countries that have spectrum needed for 6G in 2030 will secure global innovation leadership.
