| 2012 || November || Program launch || || The iJOIN EU project is launched, focusing on "{{w|small cell}}" technology, which is of key importance for taking advantage of limited and strategic resources, such as the {{w|radio wave}} {{w|spectrum}}. According to {{w|Günther Oettinger}}, the European Commissioner for Digital Economy and Society (2014–2019), "an innovative utilization of spectrum" is one of the key factors at the heart of 5G success. Oettinger further describes it as "the essential resource for the wireless connectivity of which 5G will be the main driver".<ref name="Speech at Mobile World Congress: The Road to 5G">{{cite web|url=http://ec.europa.eu/commission/content/speech-mobile-world-congress-road-5g-0_en|title=Speech at Mobile World Congress: The Road to 5G|date=March 2015|access-date=6 August 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151110001439/https://ec.europa.eu/commission/content/speech-mobile-world-congress-road-5g-0_en|archive-date=2015-11-10|dead-url=yes|df=}}</ref> || {{w|European Union}}
