This month, Verizon flipped the switch on the first commercial 5G network in the world. Verizon’s 5G Home network, now live in parts of Houston, Indianapolis, Los Angeles and Sacramento, serves as an example of the remarkable progress that can come from collaboration between local leaders and the private sector, as well as forward-looking policy enabling needed infrastructure modernization. It also serves as a signal to other cities that the race to 5G is on, and now more than ever, it’s crucial to keep up and not get left behind.
