The NTN Forum’s Colloquium & General Assembly will bring together stakeholders from across the Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) and Terrestrial Networks ecosystem to discuss the development, deployment and operation of satellite-enabled services based on 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standards, from 31 August to 2 September 2026 at European Space Agency (ESA) ESTEC in Noordwijk, the Netherlands.

The event is open to participants from the satellite and terrestrial telecommunications industries, service and technology providers, research and development (R&D) institutions, universities, associations, public authorities and other organisations with an interest in NTN technologies and services.

Sponsored by the ESA Space for 5G/6G & Sustainable Connectivity Strategic Programme Line, Eutelsat, Novamint, Viasat and Sateliot, the event will focus on technology maturity, deployment and experimentation experiences, regulatory and standardisation aspects, and the enablers that support the adoption of 3GPP-based satellite services. Discussions will also address upcoming developments for NTN within 5G Advanced and 6G.
