5G / MEC opportunities for 2022 to be explored by TELUS & STL Partners in "Fire-side chat" at Mobile World Congress Barcelona

    LONDON, ENGLAND, February 26, 2022 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Hosted at the Fira Gran Via in Barcelona from 28 February to 3 March MWC Barcelona 2022 is the world's largest mobile technology event. "Living On The Edge: Unlocking 5G/MEC Opportunities in 2022" will take a closer look at how the telco of today is harnessing edge computing to transform itself and connect with new customers, how they see the technology evolving and what the future of a telco looks like. Also covered will be some of the new opportunities that exist as we approach the intersection of 5G/MEC and real industry opportunities.

There is much debate in the industry on the topic of telco edge computing, but little clarity has emerged for players within the industry and their potential customers on how 5G and edge computing will truly impact business and life.

Philip Laidler, Partner & Consulting Director, STL Partners says

"Private 5G (and edge) constitute an exciting opportunity for operators. However, there is lots of market confusion and for most operators, big gaps in capabilities. For operators to succeed, they need to navigate this with a clear vision and focused execution."
