Jio questions Meta’s $3 trillion economic value math
Reliance Jio, a big telecom company in India, had a discussion about how much money can be made from using a special internet band called 3.5 GHz, which is used for 5G.
They think that the way Meta (another big company) calculated the value of this band might be missing some important things.
Jio wants to make sure that all the important factors are included when comparing different internet bands.
They believe this will help everyone understand the real value of these bands better.
Reliance Jio questioned Meta's $3 trillion economic value calculation for the 3.5 GHz band.
Jio's Ravi Gandhi argued for a side-by-side comparison with telcos.
He suggested including all factors considered in the delicensed band value creation.
The discussion took place at an unspecified conference.
Jio aims to ensure fair and comprehensive spectrum valuation.
