5G networks could create about 4.5 million jobs in the US and add roughly $1.5 trillion to the country’s GDP, according to BCG. 3 industries, in particular, will benefit from these 5G use cases: Information services, manufacturing, health care, manufacturing and health care. Delays in network infrastructure build-out or in making more licensed spectrum available would carry significant opportunity costs, BCG says. Every six-month delay in 5G network deployment could, on average, mean missing out on $25 billion of the potential 5G benefits from 2020 through 2030.
