Wireless Contributes $475 Billion Yearly to US Economy, CTIA Says, Eyeing 5G
The U.S. wireless industry contributes $475 billion yearly to the U.S. economy, said a CTIA report released Thursday written by Accenture. This shows why the U.S. has to be first to 5G, said CTIA President Meredith Baker. “The next generation of wireless will represent an even bigger boost to the economy, and that’s why we need key policy reforms this year to ensure the U.S. wireless industry wins this global race.”
