The welcome session will reflect on how RDK has evolved from a shared technology framework into a broader platform strategy for the connected home. Jason will discuss the forces shaping the next phase of RDK, the role of collaboration across operators and technology partners, and the opportunity to build a more consistent, scalable, and future-ready ecosystem.
Jason Briggs, President and General Manager, RDKM
As the operator landscape continues to converge, Liberty Global will share its perspective on why the next evolution of RDK matters and how it can help operators reduce deployment friction. The session will explore how speed, flexibility, reusable components, and lower integration costs can support future deployments, while underscoring the importance of an active ecosystem that contributes to the platform rather than simply consuming it.
Mark Kinlen, VP Platform Technology, Liberty Global
This strategic roadmap session will outline where the RDK platform is headed and how the community is aligning around a more consistent platform strategy. Pedro and Augusto will explain the role of Core RDK, platform governance, and shared release discipline, while showing how video and broadband fit together as part of one integrated approach to long-term platform growth.

AI is dramatically changing both the pace of software development and the threat landscape. New models can find, exploit and help identify and remediate vulnerabilities much faster than traditional development cycles. This session will explore what that means for operators running millions of devices, and why staying current on the platform matters more than ever.
Nitin Pai, CMO & Chief Strategy Officer, Tata Elxsi
The RDK Ready program is a practical path for improving platform readiness from hardware validation through onboarding and assurance. Glee and Johan will discuss how clear validation models, operator alignment, and partner participation can reduce repeated integration work, accelerate deployment cycles, and give the ecosystem greater confidence that devices, components, and programs are ready to scale. Participating SoCs will then join as a panel to discuss their experiences with RDK Ready and discuss how this benefits the RDK ecosystem.

RDK-B has traditionally provided operators with a common foundation for managing broadband devices and connectivity. But where does the platform go next as the connected home increasingly becomes a services environment? In this fireside chat, Oscar Gallego will discuss Vodafone’s perspective on the evolution of RDK-B, its potential to support a broader portfolio of home services, and the role of open platforms in making those services easier to develop, integrate and scale. The conversation will also explore how Vodafone is extending the reach of its RDK-B capabilities beyond its own operations. Rather than traditional platform syndication, the proposition is aimed at giving other operators access to proven capabilities while allowing them to retain their own customer relationship, market positioning and service strategy. At its core, the discussion will address a strategic question for the industry: how can operators collaborate on the technology underneath the experience while continuing to differentiate where it matters to their customers?
