To support the growth of 5G technology and experiences, Verizon is opening 5G Labs where companies are invited to develop and test apps and experiences. Verizon recently launched its first 5G-enabled international production lab in London. As the 5G network will offer significantly improved performance over 4G networks, Verizon is encouraging people to make the most of the cutting-edge innovation. Within the London Lab, there's a mobile command center, an AR shopping experience, smart retail shelving and much more.
