Europe 5G Readiness Index: Assessing Europe’s readiness to deploy 5G

The wait is over. 5G is here. A lot has been said and written in the past years regarding the new generation of mobile technologies which is now coming to life across the world. For some companies 5G is their last chance to boost their revenues and become relevant in the marketplace again, while others see it as an unnecessary cash-burning upgrade for which there is no clear value proposition to justify the additional investment required. 5G has become the new arms race between the different nations, which are desperately trying to claim leadership in 5G for their own reasons. Countries which have traditionally been pioneers in technology development and adoption continue to lead the ‘race to 5G’, while nations which have traditionally been technology buyers have started investing in the new technology, also wanting a piece of the 5G cake. All in all, each country’s 5G readiness depends on several economic, operational and social factors.
