Well said, Craig Thomas. These events are special not only for the work that gets done, but for the face-to-face conversations that make for even better future online and in-person collaborations. Thank you again, Axiros, for your support and for bringing us to your lovely hometown of Munich.
We had a fantastic Broadband Forum member meeting and BASe Technical Summit in Munich last week. Our members continue to come together and develop specifications and solutions that help fix real-world issues facing our industry. There are so many important projects in the works that all place the end-user experience first, which I am very excited about. A special thanks to our meeting sponsor Axiros for its warm hospitality, our summit speakers for driving such engaging and thought-provoking discussions, and lastly to the great work of the BBF staff that ensure that these events are such an overwhelming success.

Thanks, Axiros, for your sponsorship and for bringing the Broadband Forum's 2025 Summer Meeting to Munich. Coupled with the BASe Technical Summit, it was a week full of advancing standards, learning, and great camaraderie. Thank you for memorializing it in this summary video!
[Axiros Events] That’s a wrap — and the final day of the Broadband Forum BASe Summit in Munich! The entire week offered a dynamic mix of thought leadership, fresh perspectives on broadband innovation, and valuable face-to-face connections — culminating in the two-day BASe Summit, which continued the event’s tradition of high-impact discussions about the future of broadband. We´re especially proud to contribute with a session led by our CEO and founder, Gunther Klessinger, on “CPE Vendor-Agnostic Home Portals.” And yes… there may have been a few beers involved in the evening — purely for networking purposes, of course! 🍻 A huge thank you to Broadband Forum for bringing this event to Munich and providing a platform for knowledge-sharing, collaboration, and innovation with companies and professionals from around the world. 🌐 We’re excited for what comes next — and we’ll see you again soon! #BroadbandForum #BASeSummit #BroadbandInnovation #Networking #Munich #TechSummit #FutureOfBroadband #USP
