Future reality: GSMA calls for industry leaders, governments to enable mobile connectivity. Kathy Gibson reports from mobileworldcongress 2022 ~

Kathy Gibson is at Mobile World Congress 2022 – What mobile industry leaders are imagining today will become reality in the future; just as dreams of self-driving vehicles and artificial intelligence a couple of decades ago are coming true today.

Granryd cites the example of the power industry, where mobile technology could be used to help reduce carbon emissions. 5G is key to many future solutions like smart cities, fintech, proptech, agritech and more – and close to 180 mobile operators around the world have already launched 5G services, Granryd says.

So far most counties have failed to release 5G in the mm spectrum, which is what’s needed to provide the best connectivity in urban areas.Today, just under half of the world’s population – 3,7-billion people – is not connected online. Of these, 450-million don’t have coverage; but 3,2-billion are covered, yet are still not connected.
