We are pleased to invite your submissions for the 4th edition of the International Conference on 6G Networking (6GNet 2025), which will be held in Paris, France, from December 17 – 19, 2025!

Research on 6G is accelerating with multiple initiatives worldwide producing more proof-of-concepts and trials. traffic forecasts are disrupted by two recent phenomena : the tremendous development of novel everyday services driven by Generative AI and at the same time, the recent efforts of large traffic generators such as video content providers to optimise video codecs and reduce traffic whilst protecting the end-to-end Quality of Experience (QoE). As a consequence, business-as-usual exponential traffic growths are challenged, and network traffic is unusually uncertain. Additionally, there is a growing concern to take into account the lessons learnt from 5G, which is still struggling to be monetized in many territories. 
In such highly dynamic context, 6G networking is a tremendous opportunity to investigate and foster research in areas like network Ai-driven traffic modelling, network for AI, network APIs for future services, the need for massive digital inclusion and stronger robustness against attacks of any kind, among other challenging topics like global network automation (AI for network), delivery and operation. 

Discussions on 6th Generation (6G) networks have already started in standardisation at the 3rd Generation partnership project (3GPP), envisaging first 6G specifications by 2030. Development of 6G networks that are sustainable economically, societally and environmentally, including minimum hardware refresh is imperative. Last but not least, network features can now be considered as APIs by Application software developers to build services. 

6G networking may also be seen as a true convergence point where the distinction between fixed and mobile infrastructures would increasingly vanish.

The research effort in this area of convergence was initiated for quite some time but dramatically progressed with 5G architecture concepts.

This third 6G conference therefore aims at assessing the progress of the various research efforts in areas that will forge 6G networks.

The 6GNet conference will bring together top-notch experts from academia and industry, including network operators, to stimulate discussions, introduce new ideas and thereby contribute to the progress of 6G networking research.

We invite authors to submit original contributions in all areas of 6G networks and networks for 2030 and beyond.
