Smart Cities

“With billions of ‘people & things’ becoming

increasingly connected, the need to combine the potential of unlicensed

and licensed wireless services has become an

imperative for the operators, cities, high-

density venues and players focused on key

market opportunities such as Smart Cities, IoT, Big

Data, Converged Services and 5G.

The WBA Vision 2020 harnesses our experience of creating seamlessly interconnected wireless services in new and emerging areas.”
