By , , and 1 Min Read

In brief

The fourth instalment of Baker McKenzie’s TMT Looking Ahead delves into 5G, which, with its high speed, ultra-low latency and ability to simultaneously connect multiple devices, continues to drive global business opportunities. 5G use cases are increasingly popular in all levels of infrastructure and across industries and, as such, continue to attract the scrutiny of governments and regulators. In this episode of TMT Talk, Raffaele Giarda, Stephen Crosswell, and Mackenzie Martin discuss the evolving regulatory landscape that applies to 5G and its uses cases, with a particular focus on antitrust and patents. For more helpful insight on this and other 5G-focused topics, please read our short articles in Report 4 of TMT Looking Ahead 2022.
