5G is here - are you ready?

5G has the potential to create a fully connected, fully automated society and make the Internet of Things a reality. But most UK businesses do not realise the potential it could bring.

The ambition with our OM5G report has been to consider different spheres within the real estate universe and some of the likely consequences within cities. Engaging industry-leading researchers to interview some of the leading players, we have spent five months looking into how offices, retail, residential and industrial real estate could be impacted.

In this report, we’ve spoken to more than 80 business leaders and are extremely grateful for their time and honesty. Understanding how companies like Canary Wharf, Grosvenor, Ted Baker, WiredScore and Moda Living are all innovating in their respective fields is exciting. And hearing from the major infrastructure providers, such as BT, Wireless Infrastructure Group, Cornerstone and Cellnex has provided a valuable perspective on everything.
