As part of ABI Research's 5G Markets research service, Leo Gergs has a special focus on the commercialization of 5G, covering 5G use cases across several enterprise verticals and their financial impact. His area of expertise lies in identifying key enterprise vertical requirements, mapping them to 5G capabilities, and, in turn, identifying what the future use cases and potential new business opportunities will be for the new generation.

He is also involved in calculating the economic value of 5G across different verticals and its contribution to global Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
Prior to joining ABI, Leo was a Country Manager for an industrial consulting firm in London, acting as the key account manager for the company’s German clients. He was in charge of liaising with potential clients to win custom research, as well as liaising with existing clients to address their research requirements.
