By now, you’ve probably heard that the Wireless Broadband Alliance will proudly host the next Wi-Fi Global Congress in San Jose, California, at the San Jose Convention Center on 12 – 15 October, 2015. This will be our biggest event yet, and we couldn’t be happier or more excited to bring the largest global Wi-Fi event to the Capital of Silicon Valley.

Part of what makes the Wi-Fi Global Congress such a great event is that it provides a forum for several different topics to be discussed, debated, and presented upon. These topics are some of the hottest talking points in the Wi-Fi industry, and in San Jose, attendees will have the opportunity to learn and network about a wider variety of topics than ever before.
