Keysight Technologies has been awarded the 2025 Global Company of the Year award by Frost & Sullivan for its excellence in 6G test and measurement. The recognition underscores Keysight's leadership in innovation, strategic execution, and market impact in accelerating 6G technology. The award highlights Keysight's pioneering work in AI, digital twin testing, and spectrum exploration, driving the future of 6G connectivity.

Frost & Sullivan's independent benchmarking analysis evaluated Keysight across two key dimensions: strategy effectiveness and execution. Keysight excels in both areas by aligning its R&D investments with emerging 6G market needs while delivering scalable, high-performance solutions. According to Sujan Sami, research director at Frost & Sullivan, Keysight's solutions span RF and network testing, offering a broader and more flexible approach than competitors. These tools enable researchers to generate and analyze signals across the spectrum and recreate complex and dynamic environments, accelerating 6G research [1].

Keysight was the first vendor to secure the US FCC's Spectrum Horizons Experimental license, gaining access to sub-terahertz frequencies from 95 GHz to 3 THz. This early regulatory breakthrough enabled Keysight to validate ultra-high-speed, low-latency 6G applications, such as augmented reality and holographic communications, setting a new industry benchmark [1].

The company's integrated approach combines high-speed hardware with intelligent software, like Vector Signal Analysis, creating a powerful test and validation ecosystem. Its digital twin capabilities enable researchers to emulate complete 6G networks, potentially reducing field testing costs, accelerating development, and optimizing AI/ML model training for RAN and PHY layer improvements [1].

Keysight's strategic focus on AI/ML also enhances testing accuracy. The company's collaborations with leading universities, including Northeastern University, the University of Malaga, and the Singapore University of Technology and Design, demonstrate its commitment to advancing research in new spectrum technologies, AI-native networks and devices, and new network architectures [1].

By providing test capabilities for non-terrestrial networks (NTN), including satellite and aerial systems, Keysight supports 6G's vision for ubiquitous connectivity, even in remote and underserved regions. The company's holistic customer engagement strategy and brand consistency earn it strong trust across the wireless value chain [1].

"We're honored to receive this recognition from Frost & Sullivan, which reflects our commitment to enabling the next generation of wireless innovation," said Giampaolo Tardioli, Vice President, 6G and Next Generation Technology at Keysight. "Advancing 6G requires test solutions that deliver precision, reliability, and deep technical insight, areas where Keysight continues to lead. From working with partners to establish a pre-6G test setup using centimeter-wave (cmWave) spectrum to advancing AI-for-RAN with solutions to validate AI models, our decades of expertise and industry partnerships uniquely position us to support the breakthroughs that will define the future of connectivity" [1].

Frost & Sullivan congratulates Keysight for setting the pace in 6G innovation and execution. Its contributions are shaping the future of wireless communications, enabling its customers to design, test, and deploy next-generation networks with confidence.

Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents the Company of the Year Award to a company that demonstrates outstanding strategy development and implementation, resulting in measurable improvements in market share, customer satisfaction, and competitive positioning. The award recognizes forward-thinking organizations that are reshaping their industries through innovation and growth excellence [1].
