Dear colleagues,

The 1st Training School and Research Colloquium on Next Generation 
Communications (NextGCom) will take place in Litochoro (Greece) under 
the famous Mountain Olympus, the home of the twelve Olympian Gods from 
Greek mythology.

The NextGCom 2024 event is co-organized by the one6G Association, the 
IEEE Communication Greece Chapter & the International Hellenic 
University (Greece). It is endorsed and supported by the IEEE 
Communication Society (ComSoc) Young Professionals, the IEEE Future 
Networks Initiative, the IEEE ComSoc Technical Committee in Information 
Infrastructure & Networking (TCIIN) and the IEEE Student Branch @IHU in 
Thessaloniki.

The NextGCom event is open to all (researchers/students/academic 
staff/industry participants) with PhD/Early Stage Researchers being 
particularly welcome to attend and participate! The attendees will enjoy 
lectures from leading experts but, if they want, can present their 
research outputs (and receive constructive feedback). For this reason, 
on Friday (August 30) there will be 2 Research Poster Sessions in which 
interested attendees can present their research work!

Highlights include:
- Attend a program of Lectures by ten (10) leading experts on Next 
Generation Communications.
- Authors of selected presented Research Posters will be invited to 
submit an article to a Special Issue of the IEEE Future Networks Tech Focus.
- Combine the majestic Mountain Olympus, cultural attractions and serene 
beautiful beaches along the Aegean Sea. Visitors will enjoy the famous 
Greek hospitality together with fresh seafood and the excellent Greek 
cuisine.
