  • “Telco networks will have gained first-hand experience in dynamic network traffic management while businesses and their telco partners will have a better understanding of the challenges of homeworking. 
  • “The need for robotic health workers, biometric virus predictors and AI health management tools will provide new use cases and investment justification for 5G. 
  • “The situation will provide a shot in the arm for telco innovation around AI and machine learning and a catalyst for app and solution innovation ecosystems.”
