Gilbert-Ash constructed the Innovation Centre for 5G Technology (IC5G) at the University of Surrey, the world’s first facility dedicated to the research and development of 5G technologies.

The centre offers the UK’s only large-scale test-bed, which is used to prototype technological solutions, helping to define the global approach to 5G. It also hosts dedicated specialist laboratories for network testing and management, and communications electronics.

The accommodation comprised single and multi-occupancy academic offices, open plan academic workstations, electronic and test bed laboratories, including machine rooms and comms rooms, seminar rooms, social/cafe space and support services rooms.
