Whatever Vodafone’s intention when polling 1,000 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the UK, and whatever its conclusion from their responses, one thing is also clear: business is hard in this economic climate. What also seems apparent, reading between the lines of Vodafone’s enterprise...
In order, Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Beijing, London, and Seoul ranked as the top five smart cities, or ‘digital cities’, in a new study by Economist Impact. New York, Sydney, Singapore, Washington DC, and Paris rounded out the top 10, meaning Europe and Asia Pacific contributed...
This is a rehash (and extension, in the end) of a previous post, to an extent; but it distils the message from before, and says there are sure signs, at last, that the private cellular market, covering localised installations of enterprise-geared 5G, nominally, has...
Chinese vendor ZTE, together with China Telecom Chengdu Branch and other partners have been working in the so-called "5G Joy City" project in Chengdu, China, with the main goal of improving the quality of life of Chengdu residents.
As part of this initiative, ZTE and...
