du, from Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company (EITC),
is showcasing the future of 5G to guests and customers who visit the company’s Al Majlis at the
Madinat Jumeirah throughout Ramadan.
Demonstrating the differences between the 4G network and 5G connectivity through a live
interaction, du is giving people the opportunity to interact with 5G technology and learn about
the potential this will deliver for consumers, enterprises and government entities in the UAE.
“5G networks will introduce a connected experience like nothing before, while also ushering
innovative possibilities and better capabilities for all,” said Saleem AlBooshi, CTO at EITC. “By
enabling customers to witness the immense benefits that 5G will bring first-hand through our
live demonstration, we are proud to be opening up a window to the future of network
connectivity within the UAE.”
Presenting the future of 5G at du’s Al Majlis, du’s senior executive team provided a detailed
demonstration to the company’s guests on the importance of 5G and the vast differences it has
compared to 4G.
Earlier this month, du welcomed new and existing customers across the country to visit its
flagship stores in Abu Dhabi and Dubai to learn about the benefits and potential that 5G mobile
and industrial connectivity will bring.
The telco plans to be one of the first providers in the world to make next generation
