The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) is pleased to invite you to this Online Session, taking place on Wednesday 1 July, from 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm CEST, introducing the newly released 5GAA Technical Report “A Study on Dynamic V2X Use Cases”, giving participants a first look at its key findings and insights—directly from the experts who developed it. 

The study explores how C-V2X technologies can support a range of dynamic road safety use cases beyond basic awareness services, including intersection safety, vulnerable road users, soft intersections, and high-speed rear-end collisions. By combining analytical models, simulations, and real-world data, the report examines how direct (PC5) and network-based (Uu) communications can work together to extend situational awareness, especially in complex or non-line-of-sight scenarios.

With V2X increasingly reflected in NCAP discussions, this session will also touch on what these findings mean for the path toward deployment and real-world implementation.

Attendees will have the opportunity to hear directly from the main contributors and be among the first to explore the report published by the 5G Automotive Association.

The session will be moderated by our CTO Maxime Flament and welcome:
– Li Zhao, Senior Standardisation Expert at CATT
– Tony Sammut, Senior Manager for Networks and Internet at Vodafone
– A. Farhan Hanif, Engineer at Qualcomm
– Jonathan Borrill, CTO of Anritsu

If you’re reading this after the 1st of July and you missed the event, we have got you covered! Check out the recording of the session here.

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) and the International Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike Association (IBTTA) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to establish a framework for cooperation on tolling, including Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X)-enabled tolling use cases. 

The agreement was formalized at the IBTTA Technology Summit in Orlando, Florida, bringing together more than 1,000 transportation, technology and infrastructure leaders focused on advancing the future of mobility. 

5GAA and IBTTA share a commitment to advancing safer, smarter and more efficient transportation systems through innovation in connectivity and infrastructure. By aligning IBTTA’s leadership in tolling and road management with 5GAA’s global network of automakers and technology leaders, the two organizations aim to support the evolution of integrated, technology-enabled transportation networks at scale. 

“This memorandum provides a structured basis for dialogue and collaboration with the tolling community on topics where connectivity and infrastructure increasingly converge. By working together with IBTTA, we can jointly explore how connected technologies, including V2X, support the evolution of tolling systems and mobility services,” said Christof Schmidt, director general of 5GAA. 

Through this MoU, the two associations will collaborate in areas where connectivity, infrastructure and tolling intersect, including coordinated technical, testing and deployment activities. The cooperation aims to strengthen exchange between industries while ensuring the tolling and road management perspective helps inform the development of connected vehicle technologies. 

“This collaboration advances how tolling and road pricing integrate with connected vehicle technologies in real-world operations,” said Mark Chung, executive director and CEO of IBTTA. “Together, we’re helping drive interoperability and innovation across the transportation system.” 

As part of this collaboration, the organizations will engage in technical discussions, contribute to working groups, coordinate on areas of shared policy interest and support joint activities that advance innovation, interoperability and real-world deployment across tolling and road management.

The 38th 5GAA Meeting Week will be held in Munich, Germany, from 14–16 July 2026.

Our next gathering will bring together 5GAA members, partners, and key industry stakeholders to exchange insights, explore the latest advancements in connected mobility, and collaborate on shaping the future of C-V2X across the world.

5GAA Members, get ready to connect, collaborate, and innovate as we advance the future of mobility.

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) has released its 2025 Annual Report, highlighting the association’s continued progress toward the global deployment of Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) technology and the realisation of connected mobility solutions. The report outlines 5GAA’s milestones and achievements over the past year across strategic areas such as policy engagement, standardisation, technical innovation, and global collaboration. 

Strategic Framework: Four Clusters, One Direction

A major milestone has been the updated 5GAA Strategy, built around four key clusters, among them two new areas of expansion. These clusters bring clarity to how C-V2X and advanced connectivity will shape the future of mobility, enabling safer roads, new business opportunities, seamless global connectivity, and the technical foundation for next-generation vehicles.

Shaping future automotive connectivity standards

5GAA remained closely engaged in 3GPP activities around 5G‑Advanced and the first steps towards 6G, with a clear objective: ensuring that future releases reflect the realities of the automotive sector. As connectivity evolves, 5GAA advocated for an orderly transition that supports long vehicle lifecycles and the continuity of services entering the market.

Engaging with Policy Makers and Local Ecosystem

From Europe and the Americas to China, Korea, Japan, and India, 5GAA is working closely with national authorities, standards bodies, and regional partners to foster global harmonisation.

Voices, Visibility and Impact in 2025

5GAA also showcased, through real-world demonstrations, the potential of connected mobility. During the Meeting Week in Paris, members delivered for the first time emergency calls using Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) and 5G-V2X Direct for advanced use cases like Vulnerable Road Users (VRU) protection in real traffic and road conditions. In the United States, C-V2X partnered with 5GAA members to demonstrate how C-V2X Direct and network communications complement each other at the Turner Fairbank Highway Research Center, and the first ‘Day One Deployment District’ in Atlanta demonstrated that large-scale connected vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) implementation is a deployable reality. In China, the Meeting Week in Shanghai highlighted rapid C-V2X advancements across vehicle-road-cloud integration for larger-scale deployment. These events underscore how global collaboration accelerates innovation and supports more consistent deployment across markets.

Expanding Global Presence and Strengthening Industry Collaboration 

In 2025, 5GAA brought together over 110 member organisations from across the globe, reflecting a truly international footprint in advancing connected mobility. The membership spanned Europe (44%), Asia (30%), and the Americas (26%), and included 10 of the top 15 global automakers, 8 of the top 10 mobile network operators, and 2 leading smartphone manufacturers. 

Beyond its core membership, 5GAA also strengthened ties with more than 40 external organisations.
