In mid-April 2010 ABI Research (under the auspices of its events division, ABI Forums), held a 2-day conference in Hong Kong, on the topic "4G Networks: LTE & WiMAX." In addition to four senior analysts from ABI Research, the event attracted 26 high-profile speakers from companies such as Intel, Ericsson, Alvarion, Huawei, Nokia, NEC, and Motorola, industry bodies such as the GSMA, and academia.

This Research Brief bundles, in PDF form, all the slides from all the presentations given at the conference. They cover a wide range of 4G-related topics, embracing three major themes: business and deployment strategies, semiconductors, and network evolution.
