AWS Invests Billion in Georgia Data Centers to Power AI Growth

UK AI Investments: US Tech Giants Reshape Data Centers

Tens of billions in new US tech commitments are set to reshape the UK’s data center footprint, power needs, and network design over the next four years. Microsoft plans to deploy $30 billion into UK AI infrastructure, its largest commitment in the country, split between new-build capacity and financing via partners such as Nscale. Alphabet added roughly £5 billion for AI research and infrastructure over two years and opened a new data center campus in Hertfordshire. These moves sit under a broader US-UK “Tech Prosperity Deal” announced during a state visit, spanning AI, quantum, and nuclear cooperation. The overall vector is clear: more compute, closer to UK users, on a faster timeline.

Nokia and Deutsche Bahn launch 1900 MHz 5G FRMCS rail network

Nokia and Deutsche Bahn launch 1900 MHz 5G FRMCS rail network
Nokia and Deutsche Bahn have activated a commercial-grade 5G Standalone network on the 1900 MHz band to validate Future Railway Mobile Communication System (FRMCS) operations on live tracks. The partners have launched a 5G SA deployment using the 1900 MHz (n101) spectrum band on DB’s digital railway test field in the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge), Germany. The network is built with Nokia AirScale radio equipment and an optimized, cloud-native 5G core, and it operates on moving trains on outdoor tracks. The setup includes built-in failover, self-healing, and real-time monitoring to sustain service continuity in mission-critical environments.

Meril Mizzo Endo 4000: AI and 5G Surgical Robotics

Meril Mizzo Endo 4000: AI and 5G Surgical Robotics
Meril Life Sciences, headquartered in Vapi, Gujarat, has introduced the Mizzo Endo 4000, a soft tissue robotic platform engineered for general, urology, gynecology, thoracic, colorectal, bariatric, hepatobiliary, ENT, gastrointestinal, and oncology procedures. Built and designed in India, the system targets precision, access, and cost barriers that have historically limited adoption. It pairs AI-powered 3D anatomical mapping with an open console design and immersive visualization, while enabling remote collaboration and telesurgery over high-performance 5G networks. Strategically, this positions India to compete with incumbent systems from Intuitive Surgical, Medtronic, and CMR Surgical, while appealing to price-sensitive markets across Asia and Africa.

Ericsson and depa extend 5G industrial innovation in Thailand

Ericsson and depa extend 5G industrial innovation in Thailand
Ericsson and Thailand’s Digital Economy Promotion Agency (depa) have extended their 5G cooperation for two more years to accelerate industrial digitalization under the Thailand 4.0 agenda. The updated memorandum of understanding renews a public–private framework that began in 2022 and centers on applied 5G innovation for manufacturers, logistics providers, energy firms, and smart city programs. A focal point remains the 5G Innovation and Experience Studio (5GIX Studio) in Thailand Digital Valley, Chonburi, which functions as a testbed and service hub for advanced wireless trials, spectrum sharing scenarios, and industry-grade applications.

Despite challenges, AI shows targeted promise in predictive maintenance, fraud detection, and 5G network slicing.

China Mobile launches CMLink MVNO in Malaysia with Maxis

China Mobile launches CMLink MVNO in Malaysia with Maxis
Maxis will host China Mobile Internationals CMLink MVNO in Malaysia, expanding CMIs cross-border mobile footprint and deepening a wholesale partnership focused on 4G/5G services and innovation. China Mobile International (CMI) has selected Maxis as the host network for CMLink in Malaysia, formalized at the 2025 China Mobile SEA Cooperation Conference in Kuala Lumpur. The move extends CMLink’s presence beyond markets such as the UK, Singapore, Japan, Thailand, and Italy, and brings a cross-border, China Malaysia mobile proposition to students, professionals, and frequent travelers. For Maxis, it signals an assertive MVNO enablement strategy designed to monetize its network through wholesale while diversifying revenue.

Deutsche Telekom Unveil’s 5G SA based Mobile Cloud Gaming with NVIDIA

Deutsche Telekom Unveil's 5G SA based Mobile Cloud Gaming with NVIDIA
Deutsche Telekom will roll out a free 5G+ Gaming option for eligible Magenta Mobil customers starting autumn 2025, integrating GeForce NOW for on-the-go cloud gaming with consistent responsiveness and stability.

5G in Automotive: Safer, Smarter Mobility
Automotive digitization now hinges on 5G’s ability to deliver reliable, low-latency, and scalable connectivity that 4G/LTE cannot sustain for safety-critical use cases. Advanced driver assistance, cooperative perception, and remote operations require millisecond-class response and deterministic reliability across dense traffic conditions. 5G Standalone (SA) with Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), improved positioning, and enhanced uplink meets these thresholds, enabling vehicles and infrastructure to exchange time-sensitive data continuously. This is the foundation for C-V2X, high-fidelity telematics, and closed-loop control that 4G/LTE struggles to support consistently. 5G enables dynamic traffic orchestration, energy-aware routing for EVs, and advanced safety services that can reduce incidents and congestion.

Humanoid Robot Games: 5G-Advanced and AI in China

Humanoid Robot Games: 5G-Advanced and AI in China
Beijing’s first World Humanoid Robot Games is more than a spectacle. It is a live systems trial for embodied AI, connectivity, and edge operations at scale. Over three days at the Beijing National Speed Skating Oval, more than 500 humanoid robots from roughly 280 teams representing 16 countries are competing in 26 events that span athletics and applied tasks, from soccer and boxing to medicine sorting and venue cleanup. The games double as a staging ground for 5G-Advanced (5G-A) capabilities designed for uplink-intensive, low-latency, high-reliability robotics traffic. Indoors, a digital system with 300 MHz of spectrum delivers multi-Gbps peaks and sustains uplink above 100 Mbps.

COAI Opposes Direct Spectrum Allocation for Private 5G in India

India’s DoT Reopens Doors for Direct Spectrum Allocation for Private 5G Networks
The Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI), representing Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel, and Vodafone Idea, is pushing back against direct 5G spectrum allocation for enterprises. COAI argues that India’s urban coverage, revenue priorities, and national security risks make an operator-led model via spectrum leasing or network slicing, more viable. The Department of Telecommunications is reviewing TRAI’s recommendation, with the decision set to shape India’s private 5G market for years.
