Digital Transformation

“We are currently witnessing a very rapid development of the digital world. On the one hand, this is generated by the growth of video content and various streaming services, but on the other hand, for example, video meetings and remote working, which have completely changed the way we work due to the corona crisis,” explained Telia Estonia.

Telia referred to Ericsson’s recent mobile technology report, estimating that if 45 percent of the world’s population resides in the 5G coverage area by the end of 2023, it will likely increase to 85 percent by the end of 2029.
