The NGMN Forum is run by the NGMN Alliance (Next Generation Mobile Networks Alliance), an Alliance founded by world-leading Mobile Network Operators, with its membership reflecting the mobile industry's entire value chain. Its goal is to ensure that next generation mobile network infrastructure, service platforms and devices will meet the requirements of operators and, ultimately, will satisfy end user demand and expectations. The NGMN Alliance was important in developing today's 5G network solutions and is now focused on areas important for the industry such as the development and Operation of Disaggregated Networks, future 6G solutions, and creating Green Future Networks.

- It is a pleasure for Tele2 to host the first NGMN Forum in 2023. As we continue to drive the rollout, aiming to be Sweden's leading 5G network, the NGMN Forum is an opportunity for us to work with other operators and the industry's entire value chain on developing future mobile networks. As leaders in sustainability, Tele2 is proud to be working with the NGMN Alliance on Green Future Networks that will benefit the industry as a whole, says Yogesh Malik, Executive Vice President and CTIO, Tele2.

- This is a time of significant change for telecom operators and we are pleased that Tele2 hosts the upcoming NGMN Forum. The Forum will provide an important opportunity to receive updates on NGMN's work on Operating Disaggregated networks, future 6G solutions, and Green Future Networks as well as share insights and challenges around the development of next generation mobile networks, says Arash Ashouriha, Chairman of the NGMN Alliance Board.
