T-Mobile US has created a new 5G Connected Future incubator programme, together with Curiosity at Peachtree Corners and the Georgia Institute of Technology, with the aim of supporting the growth and development of entrepreneurs and startups working with 5G.
The incubator is located in the city of Peachtree Corners’ 500-acre smart city technology park. The facility features a 25,000-square-foot Innovation Center and 3-mile autonomous vehicle test track. T-Mobile has deployed its Extended Range 5G and Ultra Capacity 5G network across the park, so that developers can build services in a real-world environment. Developers will build and test new 5G use cases such as autonomous vehicles, robotics, industrial drone applications, mixed reality training and entertainment, remote medical care, personal health and fitness wearables, among others.
The programme, managed in collaboration with Georgia Tech’s Advanced Technology Development Center (ATDC), is an expansion of the T-Mobile Accelerator, a programme started in 2014, in the smart city corridor of Kansas City.
