1 INTRODUCTION

In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, staying relevant and competitive in one's
professional field is a constant challenge. The emergence of 5G technology has brought with
it a wave of transformative potential, impacting industries as diverse as telecommunications,
industrial automation, and Internet of Things (IoT). To remain at the forefront of these
changes, professionals must actively engage with cutting-edge projects that harness the
power of 5G. This essay explores how participation in three of Centria's 5G technology
projects, namely 5G TEST NETWORK+ (5GTN+), 5G VIIMA, and 5G-FORCE, can signifi-
cantly enhance one's professional competence.

2 CENTRIA'S 5G PROJECTS: A PATH TO EXPERTISE

2.1 5G TEST NETWORK+ (5GTN+)

The 5GTN+ project is part of Finland's broader 5thGear initiative, focusing on the research
and development of 5G technologies. Its core objective is to actively seek new business
opportunities within network construction and management, optimize network architecture for
various applications, and establish a working model for end-user services. Participation in
this project can provide professionals with a unique opportunity to dive deep into the world of
5G technology.

2.2 5G VIIMA

The 5G VIIMA project is designed to explore the potential of 5G technology within industrial
applications. Its goal is to test and research ways to enhance digitalization and wireless solu-
tions in industrial environments. Engaging with this project allows professionals to experience
firsthand how 5G can drive digital transformation in industries, offering real value and practi-
cal solutions. Moreover, the project analyzes the creation of value chains in industrial solu-
tions, providing invaluable insights into the business aspects of 5G implementations.

2.3 5G-FORCE

The 5G-FORCE project serves as a common open research platform to investigate and verify
the new 5G technology and develop algorithms and vertical applications. This initiative brings
together multidisciplinary expertise in areas such as radio, networking, computer science, IT,
cloud technologies, and IoT services. Engaging with 5G-FORCE can equip professionals with
the knowledge and skills to tackle the challenges posed by the 5G revolution.
