This session will open with a conversation with Ajit Pai, Chairman, Federal Communications Commission, followed by a panel discussion.

Digital infrastructure and 5G moved into the spotlight as the current crisis accelerated the adaptation of technology. Yet, although 5G is going to be enmeshed in virtually every aspect of life, many future users know little about use-cases, the underlying economics, and the potential of this technology. As global deployment of 5G draws nearer, it's important to examine the implications for everyday consumers, business models, and the Internet-of-Things. It's equally important to ask what's next for the technology industry as it adjusts to the new normal.
