(Telecompaper) Nokia said that 5G-enabled industries have the potential to add USD 8 trillion to global GDP by 2030, as Covid-19 accelerates medium and long-term digital investment and value creation. The '5G Business Readiness Report' by Nokia and Nokia Bell Labs finds that 5G-mature companies are growing faster and are the only ones with a net increase in productivity following the pandemic. It said 71 percent of companies will invest in 5G over the next five years, with Saudi Arabia and the US leading adoption.
