Hosted at the GSMA Pavilion, these immersive, interactive showcases bring real-world use cases to life across healthcare, manufacturing and digital trust, developed in collaboration with leading global members and partners.

Featured Innovation Demos

National University Health System (NUHS) / Ericsson / Singtel – 5G AI-Embodied Healthcare

NUHS showcases the future of healthcare powered by AI and 5G, in collaboration with Ericsson and Singtel. At the heart of the experience is an intelligent robot nurse companion, demonstrating how AI and advanced connectivity are redefining patient care.

Visitors can also explore 3D holographic surgical planning using Microsoft’s HoloLens 2, AI-driven augmented reality for precise vein detection, and next-generation hospital-at-home technology, highlighting how connected care is extending beyond hospital walls.

Capgemini – AI-Powered Edge for Smart Factories

Capgemini will present an end-to-end smart factory demo, featuring vision-guided robotics and AI-driven quality control. You’ll see a UR3 robotic arm performing flexible operations with interchangeable grippers, while an AI-powered computer vision system carries out real-time quality inspections.

All activities are monitored through a live dashboard and coordinated across multiple stations via edge-enabled automation.

Verizon & Nokia – Flexible Manufacturing Operations

This demo explores next-generation manufacturing powered by private wireless and edge computing. Visitors will experience a flexible, cell-based “lot-size 1” production model through a robotic-arm demo representing one manufacturing cell.

The process highlights coordination between robots, AMRs, workers, and tools, with real-time, paperless workflows and visual inspection animations.

Infobip – Build Your Fraud-Fighting Agentic AI Team

Infobip’s interactive demo invites visitors to lead a mission to stop banking fraud. Participants assemble a team of AI-powered agents, each with distinct capabilities, and communicate with them via RCS messaging.

Behind the scenes, the agents collaborate to verify identities, prevent fraud and personalise customer engagement. A mirrored mobile setup ensures the experience is fully interactive and accessible to everyone.

A man in a blue suit wearing a VR headset gestures with his hands while another man watches. They stand near a round display table with a red model car on top, surrounded by glowing circles. People walk and observe technology exhibits in a busy expo hall.

A man uses a yellow power tool on a circular metal component at a display booth. Behind him, a large screen with graphs and data reads “AIRBUS” and shows 5G traceability info. Another person works at a similar station nearby, with people and booths in the background.

Video highlights from MWC Barcelona 2025

Watch a highlights video interview with NTN partners; European Space Agency (ESA), Sateliot and Skylo, as they share insights about the technology they are showcasing on the GSMA Pavilion and their innovative projects with GSMA Foundry.

A man in a suit sits in a racing simulator chair holding a steering wheel and pedals, focused on a curved screen showing a driving game. Several people, both men and women, stand around watching. The setting appears to be a tech or gaming expo.

A person takes a photo of a digital display labeled “Sounds of Kazakhstan.” The screen shows Kazakh alphabet letters and icons, with circular buttons and headphones nearby. The display is part of an exhibit with a red background and white text at the top.

A group of people at a technology expo observe a white, boxy robot displayed on brown rocks in a white container. One woman gestures, others watch attentively, and interactive screens and exhibition booths are visible in the background.
