emnify advances 6G innovation through EU-funded ORIGAMI project

**Emnify Advances 6G Innovation through EU-Funded ORIGAMI Project** In a significant move towards shaping the future of mobile networks, **emnify**, a leading provider of cloud-native IoT connectivity, has joined forces with the European Union-funded ORIGAMI project. This collaborative effort aims to develop the architectural foundations of next-generation mobile networks, paving the way for the 6G era. **A Global Initiative** ORIGAMI, which stands for Optimised Resource Integration and Global Architecture for Mobile Infrastructure for 6G, brings together European research institutions and technology companies, including **Telefónica Research**, **NEC Laboratories Europe**, and the **University of Würzburg**. The project is part of the Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU) within the Horizon Europe program. **Emnify's Role in ORIGAMI** As the use-case provider for global operator scenarios, emnify is leveraging its expertise in cloud-native IoT connectivity to contribute real-world IoT operator use cases to the project. This collaboration will help shape 6G architectures that better support global providers like emnify, ultimately empowering enterprises worldwide. **Unlocking 6G Potential** The ORIGAMI project aims to overcome the architectural limitations of current 5G systems by developing a Global Service-Based Architecture (GSBA), a Zero-Trust Exposure Layer (ZTL), and a Compute Continuum Layer (CCL). These innovations will define a new blueprint for globally interoperable, secure, and efficient 6G networks, unlocking applications that demand ultra-low latency, massive scalability, and seamless integration between terrestrial and satellite infrastructures. **Emnify's Commitment to Innovation** Through its participation in ORIGAMI, emnify is reaffirming its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and cross-industry collaboration. By combining research and real-world expertise, emnify is contributing to shaping a connected future that is more intelligent, accessible, and secure. **NaSA-OMI: Expanding Research with the University of Würzburg** Building on the success of ORIGAMI, emnify has also received approval for a new research initiative, NaSA-OMI, funded by the Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs, Regional Development, and Energy. Conducted in collaboration with the University of Würzburg, NaSA-OMI explores Network Intelligence and Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN), including the integration of low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. **A Shared Vision for the Future** Through ORIGAMI and NaSA-OMI, emnify is demonstrating its ongoing commitment to innovation, sustainability, and cross-industry collaboration. By combining research and real-world expertise, emnify is contributing to shaping a connected future that is more intelligent, accessible, and secure. **Acknowledgements** The ORIGAMI project (Grant Agreement No. 101139270) is funded by the European Commission as part of the Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU) under the Horizon Europe program.
