Reliance Jio's 2026 IPO could be India’s largest public listing, with a projected valuation between ₹10–12 lakh crore. As Jio Platforms prepares to float 2.5–5% equity, the move could reshape 5G pricing, digital infrastructure investments, and ARPU strategies across the telecom stack. With cloud, AI, and enterprise services gaining traction, Jio’s IPO positions it as a multi-product digital powerhouse. Airtel and Vodafone Idea may face intensified competition as capital deployment and service bundling accelerate.
AstraZeneca, Ericsson, Saab, SEB, and Wallenberg Investments have launched Sferical AI to build and operate a sovereign AI supercomputer that anchors Sweden’s next phase of industrial digitization. Sferical AI plans to deploy two NVIDIA DGX Super PODs based on the latest DGX GB300 systems in Linkping. The installation will combine 1,152 tightly interconnected GPUs, designed for fast training and fine-tuning of large, complex models. Sovereign infrastructure addresses data residency, IP protection, and regulatory alignment, while reducing exposure to public cloud capacity swings. For Swedish and European firms navigating GDPR, NIS2, and sector-specific rules like DORA in finance, a trusted, high-performance platform can accelerate AI adoption without compromising compliance.
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.
More than $14 billion has been invested across the CBRS stacklicenses, RAN, devices, infrastructure, sensors, and software. Over 420,000 CBRS radio nodes (CBSDs) are in service. The device ecosystem is broad: Apple and Samsung ship n48-capable handsets; industrial and FWA suppliers support n48 CPEs and routers; Ericsson, Nokia, Samsung, JMA Wireless and others provide radio and DAS. This is not a pilot; it is production infrastructure. Refarming would force replacement or retuning of hundreds of thousands of base stations and millions of end devices, plus upgrades to SAS integrations and enterprise control planes.
Lufthansa Industry Solutions and Ericsson are tackling logistics bottlenecks with private 5G. At the LAX warehouse, they replaced unreliable Wi-Fi with just two private 5G radios, reducing scanning delays by 97% and eliminating paper logs. With edge computing and AI-powered inspections, their scalable solution is setting a new standard for warehouse automation and logistics connectivity.
India’s rejection of Nokia’s 5G network slicing patent highlights a growing legal battle over telecom IP. Nokia’s appeal challenges India’s strict stance on software patents, while global competitors like Huawei and Ericsson dominate the 5G patent race. This decision may reshape vendor strategies, investment priorities, and legal precedents in next-gen telecom.
At the Emirates Great Britain Sail Grand Prix in Portsmouth, Ericsson and BT combined private 5G and public 5G Standalone (SA) to enable real-time boat telemetry, low-latency video for broadcast, and immersive AR/VR fan experiences. The hybrid network, featuring Ericsson Private 5G and BT’s 5G SA slicing, created a fully connected race ecosystem spanning multiple sites and the F50 fleet.
Ericsson has overhauled its Enterprise Wireless Solutions Partner Program, introducing a flexible structure that boosts deal registration benefits, streamlines partner tiers, expands the Mountaineer Program for technical and sales enablement, and adds the Partner View tool for clear performance tracking.
As utilities expand private LTE and 5G networks, strong partner ecosystems and managed services help balance performance, compliance, and cost. Explore how orchestration, governance frameworks, and co-managed models enable utilities to scale smarter and faster.
The City of Istres, France, partners with Ericsson, SPIE, and Unitel to deploy a cost-efficient Private 5G Network. This smart city blueprint reduces surveillance camera installation costs by over 80%, improves secure emergency communications, and leverages Edge Computing for AI-ready urban security. Istres sets a precedent for mid-sized European cities modernizing connectivity and resilience.
AT&T reported strong Q1 2025 earnings with EPS of $0.51 and $30.6B in revenue, boosted by 324K new postpaid wireless subscribers and 181K FWA additions. The telecom giant also expanded its fiber footprint by 600,000 locations and reaffirmed its commitment to broadband growth and copper retirement by 2029.
OneLayer and Ericsson have partnered to launch a scalable Zero Trust Network Access (ZT-ZTNA) solution for private LTE and 5G networks. Tailored for industries like utilities and manufacturing, this solution simplifies device onboarding, eliminates manual provisioning, and enforces zero trust policies to enhance security across connected assets.
