With the deployment of 5G network, DNB will provide access to mobile service providers and other licensees to accelerate Malaysia’s digital transformation and Industry 4.0.
Ericsson is well-positioned to capitalize on the market momentum with its competitive 5G product and services portfolio. The company is likely to benefit from its strategy that hinges on increased investments in research and development for technology leadership.
