‘As we move through this crisis, minds are turning to what the future will
look like; can we as global, national and local communities harness some
of the acceleration of digital transformation precipitated by
Coronavirus to improve our response to crises generally, support
the economic recovery and reduce disparity such as the digital
divide. We will all have our part to play in this and our industry should
be open to change and new opportunities as never before.’
Ros Singleton, UK5G Advisory Board Chair.
