Nokia: 5G deployments to add to global GDP growth

(CercleFinance.com) - Nokia said on Monday that 5G deployment could add a potential 8-trillion-dollar contribution to the global gross domestic product (GDP) by 2030.


The Finnish telecom gear maker said in a statement that 72% of large companies plan to invest in 5G over the next 5 years, despite the economic challenges of COVID-19.

This new research from Nokia and Nokia Bell Labs also reveals that across 8 economies - Australia, Germany, Finland, Japan, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, the UK and the US - 50% of companies are "at the midway level" regarding 5G readiness.

Nokia said its research shows that just over a fifth of technology buyers (22%) said that 5G implementation is not a current priority for their business.

Nokia's report comes as political leaders have recently displayed concerns about 5G telecommunications network rollouts over possible health risks.
