Join the LoRa Alliance and member experts to explore real-world deployments where networks initially built for smart metering have expanded to support additional smart city applications. Through practical examples and lessons learned, speakers will examine the benefits, challenges, and limits of using one network across multiple services—and what utilities and cities need to consider before taking this approach.

Topics will include:

• Real deployments and future opportunities: Which applications already share metering infrastructure, and what could come next?
• Benefits for cities and utilities: Potential efficiencies in cost, network management, and the use of data across services.
• Technical and operational limits: How application requirements, quality of service, maintenance, and scalability influence what can share a network.
• Ownership and governance: Managing security, data privacy, sovereignty, and responsibilities across organizations and city departments.
• Different coverage models: Considerations when supplementing infrastructure with community-based network coverage.

The discussion will also explore the reverse opportunity: whether networks originally deployed for smart city applications can support smart metering.

Designed for utilities, city leaders, and IoT professionals, this webinar will offer practical insights into where shared LoRaWAN infrastructure delivers value, where separate networks may be more appropriate, and what it takes to build a trusted foundation for growth.

Presented by: Gavin Brown (RAKwireless), Pauline Schipani (Nievre Numerique), Frederik Oliver (Netmore), Jan-Philipp Exner (ZENNER) and moderated by Remi Demerle (Semtech)
