How US government organizations can exploit the flexibility of emerging 5G network architectures
The world has never been more connected. Yet the rise of 5G is being accompanied by a further wave of connectivity-based technology innovations that has significant implications for US government organizations. There’s far more to the disruptive power of 5G than fast speeds for mobile broadband services. It’s time to broaden the focus to emerging network architecture that offers unprecedented levels of operational flexibility.

Start-up technology can be risky business if threats aren’t tackled hard and early
Founders of early-stage start-ups are characteristically passionate, driven and optimistic. Understandably so. Very often they are nurturing a breakthrough idea with the capacity to disrupt business and change the world for the better. So, as they embark on the mission to sell their vision, they should accentuate the positive and keep negative thoughts of risk to the back of their mind, right? Wrong.

Unlocking the true value of Open RAN – it's all about the RIC
Open RAN offers a huge opportunity, but to unlock the true value we must streamline the implementation of new suppliers and a disruptive technology. The good news is that a solution is in sight. The RAN intelligent controller (RIC) is the key to enabling true openness, innovation and differentiation.
Watch our webinar, with MobileWorldLive, where we highlighted the benefits that RIC platforms enable, with a focus on improved quality of experience and the creation of services that fuel new applications and revenue growth.

Will private 5G networks address connectivity concerns for utilities?
Utilities are well aware of the potential of private 5G networks and are keen to explore the full spectrum of digital systems for next generation connectivity – including AI, IoT, and Edge Compute. Oftentimes though this interest can be tinged with trepidation and concern around how to implement such technologies, especially given several complex connectivity requirements of modern utilities. Private 5G can meet the connectivity requirements of modern utilities – but the right strategy is needed.
