Their core work

BundlesLab is a Budapest-based SME specializing in 5G network technologies, with particular focus on broadcast/multicast communication, network slicing, and application platforms for vertical industries. They build and test 5G-enabled solutions for sectors like tourism, e-health, media, automotive, and public safety. Their work spans from enabling 5G broadcast capabilities to creating experimentation platforms where third parties can deploy and certify 5G applications (NetApps).

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

BundlesLab entered H2020 in 2017 working on foundational 5G broadcast and multicast technology (5G-Xcast), focused on the radio communication layer. By 2019-2024, their focus shifted decisively toward vertical applications — applying 5G network slicing and orchestration to real-world domains like tourism, healthcare, media, automotive, and public safety. Their most recent project (5GASP) moves further up the stack into DevOps-style application deployment and certification on 5G infrastructure, signaling a transition from network-level work to platform and application-layer expertise.

BundlesLab is moving from 5G network-layer R&D toward application-layer platforms and vertical industry deployment, making them increasingly relevant for projects needing 5G integration into specific business domains.

How they like to work

BundlesLab operates exclusively as a contributor rather than a project leader — zero coordinator roles across all three projects, with two participations and one third-party involvement. They work within large consortia (56 unique partners across 16 countries), suggesting they are a specialized technical contributor brought in for specific 5G expertise. Their third-party role in 5G-TOURS indicates they can also serve as a subcontracted expert, offering flexibility in how they join projects.

Despite being a small company, BundlesLab has built connections with 56 unique partners across 16 countries through just 3 projects, reflecting the large-consortium nature of 5G research in Europe. Their network spans broadly across EU member states with no obvious geographic concentration beyond their Hungarian base.

What sets them apart

BundlesLab offers a rare combination: deep 5G broadcast expertise paired with practical knowledge of deploying 5G for vertical industries like tourism, healthcare, and automotive. As a Hungarian SME, they bring Central European cost efficiency with Western European consortium experience. Their progression from radio-layer 5G research to application-level platforms means they can bridge the gap between telecom infrastructure teams and domain-specific application developers.

Highlights from their portfolio

• 5GASP
  Their largest funded project (EUR 427,438), focused on building a 5G application experimentation and certification platform — representing their move into higher-value platform work.
• 5G-Xcast
  Their entry into H2020, working on broadcast and multicast enablers for 5G wireless systems — established their foundational 5G expertise.
• 5G-TOURS
  Joined as a third party, applying 5G to smart mobility, media, and e-health for real urban use cases in tourism — their first foray into vertical applications.
