Smart Networks And Services Joint Undertaking (Sns Ju)

The European Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU) is a Public-Private Partnership that aims to facilitate and develop industrial leadership in Europe in 5G and 6G networks and services. The SNS JU funds projects that shape a solid research and innovation (R&I) roadmap and deployment agenda by engaging a critical mass of European stakeholders and facilitating international cooperation on various 6G initiatives. Industry and the EU jointly fund the SNS JU in order to foster Europe’s technological sovereignty when it comes to 6G. This is done by leading in the conception, development, and standardization of next generation connectivity technologies and encouraging early market adoption of 6G by the end of this decade. The SNS JU also boosts advanced 5G deployment in Europe to empower the development of a leading European digital market and enables the digital and green transition of the economy and society.
