Mobile World Congress (MWC) remains a hub for the latest in mobile connectivity, particularly focusing on 5G. The conference, filled with a chaotic mix of announcements and keynotes, highlights ongoing concerns about the rollout and future of 5G technology. Although 5G was heavily promoted since its introduction, its practical applications seem stalled as discussions shift towards 6G. The 2024 conference marked a strong return with over 100,000 attendees, yet the challenge of effectively monetizing 5G investments persists for telecom companies amid a backdrop of previous pandemic disruptions.
The question for telcos remains how to monetize their investment in 5G, with many feeling that years of hype have yet to translate into meaningful benefits for consumers.
Since its inception at MWC, 5G has consistently been the centerpiece of discussion, yet it appears to be overshadowed by talks of 6G, raising doubts regarding its full potential realization.
