This is why Nokia is showcasing the latest innovations at the event including 5G NR Virtual Reality demo, 5G / E2E Automation, Autonomous Customer Care, 5G Future X Network vision animation and IoT use cases, and is engaging as well in discussions on topics such as ultra-broadband, the value of 5G in enabling the Internet of Things (IoT), digital transformation and the importance of encryption and Virtual Reality (VR). Nokia’s Community Hosted Connectivity Solution, also on display, is presenting an innovative solution on how to reduce the expense associated with providing mobile connectivity in rural and remote areas, while the WING Smart Agriculture as a Service is demonstrating how CSPs can offer an affordable, subscription-based smart agriculture solution, allowing farmers to access weather, soil and crop data for timely actions to increase yield, decrease costs and mitigate risks.
