EVENTS FOR 2026
Scaling Campus WiFi: Lessons from the Field
4 June 2026, Webinar
A modern campus is one of the most demanding connectivity environments in the world – thousands of concurrent users, dozens of building types, and traffic patterns that shift by the hour. Designing for that is hard. Operating it reliably, day after day, is harder. Join us for an exclusive webinar that brings together the people who have done it at scale with real-world learnings, hard-won fixes, and forward-looking thinking that most network planning conversations never get to. Built around one of India’s largest university deployment, this session combines on-ground learnings with a forward-looking view of campus connectivity and will feature insight from WBA President & CEO Tiago Rodrigues.
