Apple Signs A Billion-Dollar Contract For 5G Technology

(CTN News) – According to reports released Tuesday, Apple is joining forces with Broadcom, a US-based tech firm, to develop “cutting edge” wireless components that enable high-speed 5G networks to operate more efficiently.

In Apple’s words, the multibillion-dollar deal between the company and Qualcomm represents Apple’s commitment to investing in the American economy as part of its ongoing efforts to invest in the United States.

In a statement released by Apple, Tim Cook, the company’s chief executive officer, stated that Apple is excited to be making these commitments that will harness the ingenuity, creativity, and innovation of American manufacturing in order to drive a continuous stream of innovation.

He continues by saying that “All of Apple’s products are based on technology that is engineered and built here in the United States, and we will continue to deepen our investments in the US economy because we have a deep, unshakable belief in the future of America and its people,” he said.
