Don't miss this opportunity to deepen your understanding of sustainable technology and its critical role in our connected future.\n\n* This event will be recorded\n\nSpeaker:\n\nTheodore (Ted) S. Rappaport is a distinguished NYU professor in Electrical & Compu ter Engineering\, Computer Science\, and Grossman School of Medicine. He's also a Visiting Professor at Purdue and Fellow at Texas A&M. He founded N YU WIRELESS (2012) and earlier wireless research centers at UT Austin and Virginia Tech.\n\nTed authored key textbooks and his fundamental research shaped Wi-Fi\, early US digital cellphone standards\, and led the global a doption of millimeter wave and sub-Terahertz frequencies for 5G\, 6G\, and beyond. His work influenced FCC decisions to open new mobile spectrum ban ds (2014-2016\, 2018-2019).\n\nA successful entrepreneur\, he founded TSR Technologies (pioneered software-defined radios\, E911 location) and Wirel ess Valley Communications (site-specific wireless deployment)\, both sold to public companies. He advised Straight Path Communications\, which sold 5G spectrum to Verizon.\n\nHolding over 100 patents\, Ted is a licensed Pr ofessional Engineer. He's a member of the U.S. National Academy of Enginee ring\, a Fellow of the U.S. National Academy of Inventors\, and a life mem ber of the American Radio Relay League (N9NB).
