The pace at which India is building out 5G technology, it will have the most modern digital infrastructure in the world, Börje Ekholm, president and chief executive officer of Ericsson Group, said on Wednesday. He was joined by Nokia CEO Pekka Lundmark, who said his company has already begun exporting 5G base stations or radios manufactured in India.
Speaking at the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) Partnership Summit on Thursday, the leaders of the global telecom giants said their companies were firmly focused on India. Both are currently rolling out 5G tech in the country, partnering with telecom service providers Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel.
Ekholm said 5G will digitalise society and enterprises, and the jobs that come with it will be created where the enabling infrastructure is built out first, he said. "That's why I'm excited about India, and if I were 25, I would have moved to India," Ekholm said.
