*NEW RESEARCH* 5G: Opportunities in Next Generation Mobile Networks

Fifth generation (5G) mobile networks dominated last week’s Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona, with the UK's four operators - O2, EE, Three and Vodafone - at an advanced stage of their preparation to roll out commercial services over the next two years.

With faster mobile download speeds, lower density and increased capacity in the pipeline, those 5G networks are already giving telecommunications equipment manufacturers, handset makers and app developers a welcome boost.

But they also provide opportunities for suppliers and service providers to build and expand their own revenue by overlaying a range of enterprise mobility, Internet of Things (IoT), fixed wireless access, cloud hosting, private network, conferencing and collaboration, broadcast and content delivery services over the top.
