A recent study conducted by GSMA Intelligence indicated that the automotive sector is leading the way in the adoption of embedded SIM (eSIM) technology for Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
Historically, space exploration has mirrored groundbreaking milestones in physics. The current second quantum revolution, characterized by manipulating individual particle properties, sets the stage for unprecedented possibilities. The convergence of quantum, AI, and space technologies marks a new era in exploration. As space becomes an integral part of the global quantum web, the possibilities are immense. The following depicts the current space-oriented quantum technology applications, as well as the value quantum computing brings to the space industry.
At the MWC Barcelona 2024, Huawei held the 7th Intelligent RAN Summit. Carriers and industry partners from all over the world gathered to share the latest wireless network intelligence technologies, including the telecom foundation model and digital twin system, and discuss the characteristics of each generation of autonomous networks, and their application scenarios, and commercial practices.
The automotive industry is transforming fast. As per market analysts, conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles are expected to peak in the next few years and begin to gradually decline, giving way to electric vehicles (EVs). Many countries have already set up dedicated national automotive industry transformation funds to support the electrification of vehicles and their supply chains in an effort to align with the global green agenda. Despite the current variables in resource pricing and supply chain bottlenecks, subsequently, the new breed of software-rich EVs will lead to an autonomous driving ecosystem.
The maturity of telecom markets in the GCC region with mobile penetration rates of 130%-210% is limiting rated GCC telcos' revenue growth to about 1%-3% annually, hindering organic growth prospects for telcos, according to S&P Global Ratings. Higher growth rates, broader business diversification, and lower capital intensity fuel the tech appetite of rated telecommunications companies (telcos) in the (GCC) region, the analysis noted.
