The ease of doing business brought by digital marketing is unparalleled across industries. From small to large-scale businesses, everyone has benefited from online advertising during the COVID times, which has made even more people realise the advantages of digital. How advantageous, can the upcoming technology of 5G can be for the advertising industry? Digital Marketing keeps finding engaging formats to leverage. Short-form videos, rich media innovations, AR, VR and Metaverse, are all part of technological innovations that can be seamlessly integrated into a brand’s marketing strategy, provided we have better data connectivity. With 5G in view, advertisers can serve the audience with more engaging content than ever. Is the combination of 5G technology and the advertising industry going to help the businesses or going to make the competition more tough for them. 5G technology, without a doubt, will give the advertising industry a boost in terms of developing new content formats.
