Let’s take a look into the future! We’re so excited to be back in the studio to talk and make our predictions for 2023. In this episode, we will look at not just the wireless and telecommunications industry but also other related industries that will build the infrastructure.

If you missed the last show, we recapped all the exciting advancements in 2022 and laid the foundation for this conversation. Check it out before diving into this episode to get the most out of the show! If you are caught up to speed, hit play to hear our 2023 predictions or keep reading for a sneak peek!

First, let’s start with the huge savings we see coming for consumers this year with so much competition in the market. We know that more players in the game create a win-win situation, as more companies are entering the market and providing more options for customers, which leads to better deals and more affordable prices. It’s always great to see the consumer come out on top!

Artificial intelligence is becoming a major player in almost every industry, and the telecom industry is no exception. With AI, companies will be able to improve operations and offer new services to customers. We also share our thoughts on how AI will not lead to mass layoffs in our industry but create more jobs.

We also want to share our thoughts on “The New Space Race” and mention the Amazon Satellites that are coming to the market this year. These satellites will be able to provide internet access to remote areas and improve connectivity for customers. They will be direct competitors with StarLink so you can imagine how exciting this will be to watch play out!

Lastly, we discuss why we consider the 5G industry recession-proof. With the increasing demand for high-speed internet, 5G networks will continue to be a vital part of the economy. Regardless of any economic downturns, it’s great to see an industry that’s so resilient and able to weather any storm!
