The 5G pilot project in Andalusia will allow us to analyze the use cases, experiences, applications and business models that the new networks will provide.

Vodafone Business will present at the 5G Forum 2020 the progress and experiences of 5G pilot in Andalusia, a project promoted by the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation, and which is co-financed by Red.es through FEDER community funds.

Daniel Jimenez, General Director of Companies at Vodafone Spain, states that “we are the only ones who have been promoting 5G, from the point of view of having a commercial application and doing informative work.”

"The pilot is a showcase to allow and encourage others to develop things. We think that we have done our job, we have invested in the network, we have trained all our people, we have gone out to look for partners, we have found the use cases and we have participated," Jiménez advances.

“The 5G pilot project in Andalusia will allow the development of a large number of use cases, experiences, and applications of 5G that we hope will allow us to prove the disruptive advantages of this technology and the capacity of 5G to cause the emergence of new business models, new applications, new opportunities and which, we hope, Spain will be able to take advantage of,” says Vieira.
