On June 25, 2020 the Swedish Chamber of Commerce hosted a 5G: the Gamechanger for Society and Industry in collaboration with the The Swedish Embassy the Hague and Ericsson.

We started off with a welcome and introduction by Everth Flores, Country Manager Ericsson the Netherlands. During the past year, 5G has become an even hotter topic than before. It now has become a reality. Various mobile operators have already launched 5G services, and 5G-enabled smartphones are for sale in the shops. Still, the mass adoption is yet to come. It is expected that 5G technology will be the basis for many innovative services, both in industries as well as in society empowering an intelligent, sustainable and connected world.
So what does 5G mean for you, and your business processes ? Jeroen Buijs, Chief Technology Officer Ericsson the Netherlands explained the basic characteristics of 5G, as well as gave several examples of 5G in practice. 5G will change the way we experience sports events, music concerts play games and do our shopping, says Jeroen Buijs. Furthermore, Ericsson’s Mobility Report was presented by Patrik Cerwall, Executive Editor of the Ericsson Mobility Report. Patrick gave gave a broad forecast of the 5G market, and the impact of the COVID-19 crisis.
The Speakers gave opportunity to ask questions and clarified the facts from the fiction.
The Swedish Chamber of Commerce would like to thank Everth Flores, Jeroen Buijs and Patrick Cerwall for sharing their expertise and explaining the further 5G developments and implementations in this highly interesting webinar. We also thank the Swedish Embassy and our partners for the great collaboration.
