NEMERGENT SOLUTIONS S.L.

Their core work

Nemergent Solutions is a Spanish SME specializing in 5G network technologies, with a strong focus on network function virtualization, edge computing, and building affordable 5G infrastructure. They contribute to experimental 5G platforms and develop cloud-native network applications, particularly for public protection and disaster relief (PPDR) use cases. Their work spans the full 5G stack — from RAN and core network components to containerized network functions deployed at the edge.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

Nemergent began with broad 5G experimentation and system integration work through 5GENESIS (2018), focused on proving end-to-end 5G network concepts. By 2020-2021, their focus sharpened significantly toward practical deployment challenges — affordable roll-out via O-RAN, private networks, neutral hosting models, and containerized network functions for specific verticals like PPDR. The trajectory shows a clear shift from experimental validation toward production-ready, cost-effective 5G solutions.

Nemergent is moving toward production-grade, cost-optimized 5G solutions with O-RAN and containerization, making them a strong partner for projects bridging 5G research into real-world vertical deployments.

How they like to work

Nemergent operates exclusively as a participant, never as coordinator, suggesting they contribute specialized technical capabilities rather than leading large consortia. With 60 unique partners across 16 countries from just 3 projects, they work in large, diverse consortia typical of major EU 5G initiatives. This broad network signals openness to new partnerships and experience integrating into complex multi-partner setups.

Nemergent has built a broad European network of 60 partners across 16 countries through three large-scale 5G consortia. Their reach is wide for a small company, reflecting participation in flagship EU 5G experimentation programs.

What sets them apart

Nemergent brings a rare SME perspective to large-scale 5G infrastructure projects — small enough to be agile, yet technically deep in network virtualization and edge computing. Their progression from experimentation to affordable deployment models (O-RAN, neutral hosting, MVNO) positions them at the practical end of 5G innovation, where cost and accessibility matter most. For consortium builders, they offer hands-on 5G integration expertise without the overhead of a large telco partner.

Highlights from their portfolio

• 5G-EPICENTRE
  Their largest funded project (EUR 325,500), addressing the high-demand intersection of 5G, cloud-native applications, and public safety communications.
• Affordable5G
  Tackles the commercially critical challenge of making 5G deployment affordable through O-RAN and neutral hosting — directly relevant to real-world rollout economics.
