The COVID-19 pandemic is forcing organizations to accelerate their emerging technology agenda, as enterprise interest in 5G has increased in the wake of the pandemic. Findings from the latest EY survey of enterprise attitudes highlight the transformational promise of the 5G-based internet of things (IoT).

This report identifies the six most robust B2B “scenarios” that MNOs can build on to develop a solid 5G business case for 2030.
