COMPUTEX 2025 will run from May 20–23 at Taipei’s Nangang Exhibition Center, spotlighting “AI Next” as its core theme. The event will host top global tech companies unveiling the latest AI and computing breakthroughs.

The rapid adoption of AI is driving a surge in global data demand. Yet, 5G deployment has fallen short of industry expectations, pushing telecom operators to seek new revenue streams. At MWC 2025, the Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) underscored that “Complete 5G” will be pivotal for mobile operators looking to redefine the market and increase revenue. However, the adoption of 5G standalone (5G SA) remains the decisive factor.

As MWC 2025 concludes, Taiwan Mobile has articulated that artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as the primary theme of this year’s exhibition. The integration of AI with 5G technology is poised to create new business and revenue models for telecommunications operators.
