The effective implementation of 5G network and the use of available services will create far-reaching economic and social benefits in Łódź.

Ericsson and ŁSEZ are planning courses that will increase awareness and give direction to innovative solutions, and will translate into commercial implementations. The success of acceleration initiatives depends on the level of knowledge about the potential of 5G and the Internet of Things for entrepreneurs.
