This week, during Mobile World Congress Las Vegas, NTT and Qualcomm announced a partnership focused on bolstering the 5G device ecosystem to accelerate the global private 5G market, which the companies claim is critical for furthering AI applications at the edge.
“Devices, specifically around private networks and private 5G, aren’t quite there yet,” Shahid Ahmed, group EVP of new ventures and innovation at NTT, told RCR Wireless News. “So, we look at this partnership as more devices equals more use cases; more use cases equals better business cases; better business cases equals better adoption.
