Verizon announced its latest 5G incubator lab, this time with a focus on use-cases for public safety.
The 5G First Responder Lab, located in Washington, D.C., will provide a workspace for 15 first responder technology developers to test and develop public safety applications using 5G network technology.
Three separate cohorts, each consisting of five developers, can innovate in the lab and create go-to-market strategies over a three-month period.
“As Verizon deploys 5G, it is critical that we look beyond the launch for consumers and consider how users in public safety can leverage this revolutionary technology,” said Nick Nilan, director of public sector product strategy for Verizon, in a statement. “5G will enable technology for first responders that hasn’t been imagined yet, and this 5G First Responder Lab will help lead the creation of life-saving innovations.”
