This DCMS competition encourages the development of a UK ‘5G ecosystem’ with technology and deployment, testbeds and trials to stimulate the development of 5G use cases and business models.
The 5G Testbeds and Trials Programme (5GTT) is a central part of the government’s 5G ambitions for digital infrastructure in the UK. The government has allocated £200 million to help establish the conditions under which 5G can be deployed in a timely way to maximise the chances of the UK being amongst the leading countries in 5G adoption.
