Podcast: 5G set to open an era of invention, imagination

According to Sal Visca, telecom expert and chief technology officer at commerce cloud platform Elastic Path, 5G holds more potential than simply a new type of plumbing for the network where there’s more capacity, more speed and more data. In this podcast, Visca explores the some of the potential inventiveness and creative disruptiveness that 5G is likely to trigger. Visca thinks that 5G will change the way companies actually operate, communicate, and connect to their respective communities of vendors and customers. Visca also sees profound opportunities for the channel, principally in moving beyond selling traditional real time communications and into offering completely new ways of delivering customer experiences. “We’re going to see what’s possible,” says Visca, predicting that things once depicted as possible only in a distant future, are about to become the way businesses and consumers might achieve daily, as 5G’s impact ripples through the economy. Visca’s company, Elastic Path offers “API-driven headless commerce solution” that enable service providers to deliver omnichannel shopping. Visit https://www.elasticpath.com/
