A new report by the GSMA indicates that 6G will require up to three times the current mid-band spectrum to handle surging demand for data and advanced AI-powered services by 2040. The report stresses that governments and regulators must make near-term decisions on spectrum allocation ahead of the crucial WRC-27 conference to avoid future bottlenecks and ensure robust connectivity. Failure to plan now risks slower speeds, congestion, and lost economic opportunity in the next decade, with the study forecasting over 5 billion 6G connections globally by 2040.
