Henry Kafeman emphasises that successful R&D in SMEs begins not with building technology, but with careful preparation. Before committing resources, businesses must validate market need, assess competitors, and ensure their idea is commercially viable in terms of pricing and cost. He highlights the importance of early consideration of intellectual property, regulatory requirements, and the skills and funding needed to progress. R&D should also be viewed within a wider business context, including marketing, operations, and sustainability. Ultimately, Kafeman argues that disciplined, ongoing planning across the full product lifecycle is essential to minimise risk and turn ideas into viable, market-ready solutions.

Spotlight on Biztech Innovation Challenge Workshop

Spotlight on Biztech Innovation Challenge Workshop

For decades, telecom innovation was defined by speed—faster downloads, lower latency, greater capacity. As the industry moves toward the 2030s and 6G, that model is shifting. The next era will be shaped by intelligence, reach, and security. AI‑native networks will sense, predict, and self‑heal in real time. Non‑terrestrial networks will extend connectivity across land, sea, and sky, removing dead zones. Quantum‑safe technologies will protect data against emerging threats from quantum computing. Together, these advances transform the network from passive infrastructure into an adaptive, always‑available system that operates seamlessly in the background while supporting a fully connected world at global scale.
