According to a press release, GP Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Yasir Azman and GP Management participated in the trial at GP House’s innovation lab.
The 5G application cases will be tested and experienced in the innovation lab throughout time. The business also plans to test 5G very soon in the remaining divisional cities.
“We are trialing for 5G connectivity and using cases to unleash the potential of 4IR in pursuit of a Smart-Bangladesh,” said Yarsir Azman.
In order to make 5G possible, GP praised the government, regulator, network partners, eco-system actors, and its teams.
We anticipate more collaboration and dialogue in creating workable use cases and addressing 5G problems, according to GP CEO.
