Delay in 5G was a “missed opportunity” for the Portuguese, says Jorge Graça, a board member at Nos
Jorge Graça, an executive board member at Nos, talks about the delay in 5G’s arrival and the impact it will have on the country. He also explains how 5G will break down barriers that limit companies today.
Portugal is falling behind in the development of 5G, a delay that increasingly compromises the economy’s competitiveness. For Jorge Graça, the executive board member at Nos responsible for technology and IT, it can already be considered a “missed opportunity”: in itself, the fifth generation brings “nothing”; what counts is what companies will build on top of it.
This is a technology interview with a board member of one of the main Portuguese telecoms operators. It starts with the new mobile network, but also touches on the “cloud”.
