Building on the progress from interoperability toward full unification of terrestrial and satellite communication ecosystems, the 5th NTN Workshop brings together mobile and satellite network operators, integrators, technology providers, and academia in a collaborative setting to present and openly discuss the evolution of the NTN domain. With 3GPP 6G standardization now underway, this moment marks a decisive turning point, as, for the first time, non-terrestrial communication is fully embedded in the standardization process from its very first day. The workshop is structured around key presentations, expert panels, and live demonstrations, highlighting the roles of newly available laboratory infrastructure, space assets, and cost-effective testbeds as foundations for experimentation and validation. As a recognized industry forum, the NTN Workshop focuses on unification by bridging terrestrial and non-terrestrial sectors and harnessing the momentum created by 6G and O-RAN standardization to shape new ecosystems and accelerate cross-industry convergence.
