About 5G-MAG MEDIA ACTION GROUP
Where Media meets Connectivity
WHO WE ARE
The 5G-MAG MEDIA ACTION GROUP, is an international non-profit association fostering collaboration across the media and connectivity industries.
Our members collaborate in driving technology development from requirements to products. We leverage the power of the internet, mobile technologies (5G/6G), multimedia systems, and global APIs.
We catalyze the adoption of open standards, transforming specifications into products and services. We contribute to faster technology adoption by delivering open-source software to the community to experiment, test and build products.
​​
The work encompasses the entire journey. We build technology enablers that span from the creation of content and its transport across networks to its delivery to and consumption by a variety of user devices.
​
The association has its own legal identity, funding, governance, and administrative rules. The seat of the association is in Geneva, Switzerland.
