Dive Brief:

The Curiosity Lab at Peachtree Corners, GA, situated just outside Atlanta, unveiled an incubator program this week that will support developers as they build new 5G technology use cases.

Providing access to T-Mobile's 5G network, the 5G Connected Future incubator program will allow startups and entrepreneurs to build and test solutions like autonomous vehicles (AVs), drones and robotics. It is the latest initiative from the T-Mobile Accelerator, which started in 2014 in Kansas City, MO as a way to test innovations and bring them to market.

Program participants will work directly with technology and business leaders at the T-Mobile Accelerator, Georgia Tech's Advanced Technology Development Center (ATDC) and Curiosity Lab. The initiative offers networking, education and access to ATDC's research expertise and students to help evaluate and refine products.
