## Summary

Dan Picker, CTO of Inseego, discusses how 5G technology enables sustainability by improving efficiency across industries, citing an Accenture report that 5G use cases could save the carbon equivalent of 80 million cars annually. He explains that 5G’s low latency and high bandwidth allow for real-time monitoring of resources like water and energy, enabling applications such as drone-based agricultural surveying and smart traffic systems. Picker also addresses the challenges of 5G adoption, including the gradual rollout of infrastructure, the need for affordable machine-to-machine service plans, and the importance of security features like Inseego’s ST Edge for remote work.
