Q: Hi 5i:
I believe it would be wise to get in soon on 5G hardware producers, transmission networks, appliance manufacturers.
Aside from Canadian telecom networks I cannot readily identify any Canadian candidates.
Could you suggest Canadian opportunities, as well as a few promising US chip makers, networks, and end users?
Many thanks for your great service.
