5G Is Coming… What Does That Mean to You?
Currently available media coverage is largely produced with a simplistic point of view without context and analysis, making it difficult for the financial and IT executives – responsible for their corporate investments in this new technology – to develop a viewpoint of the merits of the technology for their companies. This program is designed to provide the attendee with a solid understanding of the opportunities presented by the rollout of 5G technology within an environment of direct, two-way communications with carefully chosen industry participants and one of the world’s most respected analysts in telecommunications. The program is planned to allow participants to see the different viewpoints of one of the world’s largest 5G component vendors (Ericsson) with a large presence in the DFW area and with one of the large carriers. The combination of vendor, carrier, and most respected analyst will provide context and dimension to the technology, the opportunities for various industries, and a solid launching point for corporate executives seeking an advantage as they evaluate strategies for corporate performance improvements.
