Key questions to be answered by experts operating in the 5G space:

1. What is the state-of-the-art of 5G technology?

2. What do the 5G standards and related patents look like?

3. Which are the 5G applications for industry 4.0?

4. How does 5G applications apply to sustainability? 

5. What is the impact of 5G applications on mobility?

6. Presently, what is the Global 5G deployment status?

5G technology is indeed one of the trending technology and need of the hour also as almost every major technology whether it be Cloud Computing, Internet of Things (IoT), Blockchain, Virtual Reality or any other primarily rely on better Internet connectivity. The traits of 5G technologies like high internet speed, lower latency, better efficiency, high throughput, etc. will take the internet connectivity game to the next level and help in unleashing a new realm of technological possibilities for various other technologies and businesses. However, is not clear to what extent we'll all benefit of 5G, whether connectivity will be the new divider and if it will be widely distributed when new emerging technologies will require 7G or more. We'll try to discover who is implementing what, what can be achieved and for how long.

Tim Pohlmann

Tim Pohlmann is the CEO and founder of IPlytics. He earned his doctoral degree with the highest distinction from the Berlin Institute of Technology, with a dissertation on patenting and coordination in standardisation. He then went on to work as a post-doctoral researcher and consultant for the Law and Economics of Patents Group at CERNA, MINES ParisTech.  In his work as an economist and consultant, Dr Pohlmann was confronted with the challenge that standards databases such as those of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers have no real, meaningful connection with comprehensive global patent databases. He realised that if we are to keep pace with the next technology revolution, then as IP professionals, we need to rethink – even revolutionise – how we approach both patent and standards data, to provide business-ready knowledge for actionable decision making across our organisations.

Dr Pohlmann founded IPlytics with the vision of creating the first solution on the market to bring together comprehensive, highly indexed technical standards information, global patents, declared SEPs, patent pool and technical standards contribution data, to provide industry-leading analysis on the past, present and future of standards-essential technology. Unlike other tools that are overly complex, IPlytics provides fast, intuitive access to patents and standards to empower the user to strategically align patent portfolios to protect innovations and proactively engage in continuous strategic portfolio development as it relates to SEP assets, for initiatives such as licensing, acquisitions and joining patent pools, or simply to understand the respective positions of the competition.
