The Sunderland Open Network Ecosystem (SONET) Project has secured grant funding of over £5.7 million as part of a £88 million Open Networks Ecosystem (ONE) competition.
The SONET Project aims to utilize next-generation technology, particularly 5G connectivity, to enhance fan interactions and provide a more immersive experience in live events and e-sports tournaments. The SONET Project also aligns with Sunderland’s smart city infrastructure and aims to reduce power consumption, contributing to the city’s drive towards net zero.
