WELab, the New Laboratory for Advanced Wireless Technologies, is Born

On March 24, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, the inauguration ceremony of WELab, the “mm-Wave Electronics Laboratory” will be held in the Auditorium Hall of Building U12 at the University of Milano-Bicocca. This laboratory is the result of a collaboration between the MUSA project and Huawei, positioning itself as a benchmark for advanced research on new generation wireless technologies.

WELab, part of the Joint Lab Huawei , represents a significant step in the development of scientific and technological research in the field of millimeter waves. Thanks to the synergy between the University of Milano-Bicocca and Huawei, the laboratory aims to explore new frontiers in high-frequency electronics, with important applications in telecommunications, industry, and the connectivity of the future.

Several key figures who made this project possible will speak at the inauguration ceremony:

• Marco Emilio Orlandi, Deputy Rector of the University of Milano-Bicocca;
• Salvatore Torrisi, Rector of the University of Milano-Bicocca and scientific coordinator of MUSA;
• Claudia Riccardi, Director of the Department of Physics “G. Occhialini”;
• Giuseppe Gorini, Full Professor of Physics at the University of Milano-Bicocca;
• Renato Lombardi, Director of the Huawei Research Center in Milan;
• Valeria Vadalà, Scientific Head of WELab.

The inauguration of WELab marks a crucial moment for the academic and industrial community, offering an innovative platform for the development of cutting-edge solutions in the field of wireless technologies. The laboratory will not only foster scientific progress but will also contribute to the training of new generations of highly qualified researchers and professionals. With this initiative, MUSA and Huawei confirm their commitment to research and innovation, promoting the growth of an increasingly advanced and competitive technological ecosystem.
