Fuelling the growth of 5G and beyond

"There is a need for additional spectrum to meet the increasing demands of the mobile sector in India,” said Ashish Garg, Senior Manager – Spectrum and Policy, South Asia and APAC, GSMA. Speaking at the Voice&Data Telecom Leadership Forum, he highlighted the importance of the mid-band spectrum in augmenting 5G and beyond. He also shared insights and experiences from the GSM Association (GSMA).

GROWING ADOPTION OF 5G 

Garg began by highlighting the rapid global adoption of 5G technology. As of December 2022, around 237 operators in 91 markets had already launched 5G services. While North America and Europe are expected to witness the highest percentage of adoption, the Asia Pacific region, particularly India, will lead in terms of the number of 5G connections. Garg emphasised that India, despite being the 88th country to launch 5G services, is catching up quickly and is poised to make significant strides in 5G adoption.
