Office of the Spokesperson
Ambassador at Large for Cyberspace and Digital Policy Nathaniel C.

World Radiocommunication Conferences are held every four years by the International Telecommunication Union to update the international Radio Regulations – a treaty-level instrument governing the global coordination and use of the radio frequency spectrum and satellite orbital resources.  WRC-23 is a significant opportunity to advance U.S. interests related to telecommunications, innovation, economic growth, and national security.
As the head of the U.S. delegation, DAS Lang’s role is to advance U.S. priorities and interests at the conference.  Policy priorities include ensuring U.S. leadership in future 5G spectrum availability, expanding connectivity and driving innovation, unlocking the space economy and promoting the next generation of space science, protecting national defense capabilities, and preserving radio frequency for maritime and aviation safety.
