The White House told companies Monday it will postpone an April
1 summit intended to champion U.S. efforts to improve
fifth-generation wireless technology, citing precautions amid the
coronavirus outbreak.
The 5G conference was expected to draw senior executives from
U.S. cellphone carriers and equipment makers, including AT&T
Inc., Verizon Communications Inc. and Samsung Electronics Co.,
according a person familiar with the plans. The guest list also
included tech companies with broader portfolios.
Administration officials have grown more vocal in recent months
about the perceived national security threat of Huawei Technologies
Co., the world's top telecom equipment supplier. Huawei
representatives have denied the U.S. allegations.
