The project will initially engage with U.K./U.S. partners before branching out to additional prospective customers through networking events. The final report will identify viable pathways for commercialisation of SaaS engineering solutions in the telecommunications sector, with particular emphasis on emerging radio-frequency/microwave component technology.</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
