Enterprise Intelligence through the transformative power of private 5G: exclusive roundtable by Beltug and Verizon
Private 5G networks (P5G) are gaining momentum in Belgium. In early February 2023, a 40MHz frequency block in the 3.8GHz - 4.2GHz range was allocated for local P5G networks in Belgium. This means Beltug members will have the possibility to build their own local P5G. But how do you build such a P5G network? Let’s find out… In 2021, Verizon, in partnership with Nokia, rolled out and started deploying a P5G network for the Associated British Ports (ABP) at the Port of Southampton. The P5G platform now provides the port with a secure, low-latency private network connection. During this roundtable, we will hear that story, as well as learn how P5G enables Enterprise Intelligence. If you already want to know more about the ABP case, feel free to read the Partner Paper Verizon has shared with us.

Living Tomorrow, Vilvoorde
When applications go beyond simply connecting, and instead enable organisations to make businesses smarter and more agile, through the use of data analytics and business intelligence tools, organisations reach Enterprise Intelligence. Organisations are better positioned for today’s digital and hyper-competitive world. But this raises a number of questions:
- How can P5G contribute to innovation, particularly in terms of boosting productivity and efficiency?
- What are the essential issues to consider when implementing P5G?
- What are the scenarios in which P5G can bring value to connectivity deployment?
- What steps can you take to develop your use case prior to acquiring P5G?
- How does a P5G network assist an organisation in meeting its data and cybersecurity standards?
At this roundtable, we’ll discuss your views and experiences, and hear how your peers see the possibilities for P5G to change their organisations. Verizon will first set the scene. Then, you will be invited to an open discussion, so bring your questions and observations.
