Ericsson Officially Opens 5G Incubator in Budapest

Ericsson, this week officially opens its 5G incubator, 'Ericsson Garage' located within its R&D facility in Budapest, Hungary. The new 5G incubator will facilitate all parties, including representatives from operators, academia and start-up companies to collaborate on developing the technology. 

The 5G incubator is part of the recently launched "5G for Europe" program, which aims to deliver industry pilots of 5G solutions in areas including the Internet of Things, energy and utilities, safety and security, public infrastructure and retail. It will include joint innovation and prototyping as well as demos to operators and enterprises. These initiatives also support the recently launched “5G Exchange” (5GEx) collaborative innovation project co-funded by the European Commission and that is driven by the Ericsson Research team in Budapest, said Ericsson.

Sara Mazur, Head of Ericsson Research
I am really excited to expand the Ericsson Garage concept. By adding another Garage, we will gain even more valuable insights that will enable industries to digitalize effectively, to create new value and to strengthen the competitive position of European industry.
