Ericsson’s 5G Innovation Hub in Saudi Arabia is currently developing a wide range of 5G use cases across different industries and segments for consumers and enterprises across the Kingdom, with 100 local fresh graduates curated from Saudi Arabia’s leading universities contributing to the initiatives.
The fresh graduates, 50 percent of which are female, are presented with the opportunity to experience on-the-job training, test ideas and see innovation come to life. In the past two years, the graduates have helped develop multiple use cases in 2019, and in 2020 helped push out several more.
The 5G Innovation Hub was established to help the Kingdom leverage 5G by testing new 5G-related and Internet of Things use cases. Working with its global ecosystem of partners, Ericsson’s 5G Innovation Hub is able to collaborate with academia, startups and partners in Saudi Arabia to build technological opportunities.
