Tech Lab on media

Leading German media outlets talk about our Tech Lab.
In 2021, we had a media reach of 50,000,000.
"Doch nicht alle Anwendungen können die Netzwerkspezialisten selbst entwickeln. Und so setzt Telefónica auf die Kooperation mit Start-ups. In der Münchener Fußgängerzone hat das Unternehmen ein „5G Tech Lab“ eröffnet, in dem junge Firmen 5G-basierte Anwendungen entwickeln können."

"Seit 2020 wird die nächste Mobilfunkgeneration 5G eingeführt. Neben Unternehmen profitieren auch Verbraucher vom superschnellen Netz. Denn neben der erhöhten Geschwindigkeit sind auch neue Anwendungen möglich. Diese testen die Mobilfunkanbieter in dafür extra eingerichteten Laboren."

"Vor dem großen Rennen stand erst einmal eine Führung durchs Wayra Tech Lab an, in dem Start-ups an spannenden 5G-Projekten arbeiten. Wayra-CEO Florian Bogenschütz und Tech-Lab-Leiterin Nora Alfen zeigten den Lesern, welche tollen Innovationen hier entstehen. Besonders beeindruckend: ein Roboter, der sich manuell steuern lässt und dessen Befehle bis zu 10.000 andere Roboter dank 5G nahezu verzögerungsfrei ausführen."
