At this year's (virtual) CES, industry leaders discussed how Covid-19 has impacted their operations. We also saw lots of tech innovation addressing the 'new normal', such as smart masks, disinfecting robots and touchless doorbells. Meanwhile, Microsoft's keynote reinforced the importance of sharing data to combat threats, and Verizon’s keynote stood out for the slew of 5G partnerships it has developed, including with the NFL, UPS and the Smithsonian. Here we present our key CES takeaways for IoT, 5G and media & entertainment, and examine the implications for operators and vendors on the road ahead.
