The Department for International Trade (DIT) and the British Embassy in Stockholm are proud to invite you to a roundtable discussion on the upcoming 5G rollout in Sweden and how businesses can capture the opportunities of this technological shift.

The world’s connectivity needs are rapidly changing and 5G is leading the way. Businesses are at the centre of this development and are set to reap the benefits of enhanced mobility, flexibility and security of 5G networks.

Sweden has for long been a digital frontrunner and quick at adopting and applying new technology. With domestic key players such as Ericsson, Volvo Group and ABB, the Swedish 5G rollout will undoubtedly stimulate demand for UK companies providing network services, innovative solutions and protection in the telecoms and tech sector.

Join us for a discussion together to see how your business can benefit from the Swedish 5G rollout already in 2021.
