We’re starting to read more and more about 5G in the news these days, and earlier this month I had the chance to speak with a crew from CNBC which flew to Finland to discuss the topic and see our Solution Experience Center. It was a really productive visit – we discussed the strong growth of data, how billions of sensors will contribute to the data flood and how Nokia is using these insights to plan smart networks of the future. This is part of our broader vision of the Programmable World, and we aim to play a leading role in it.

Watch the interview here:

Do you wonder about questions like: If we cede control to machines, will we have more or less freedom? Read more about 5G and the Internet of Things on our website and join the discussion.
