Google’s MVNO Coming Soon

The Mobile World Congress kicked off Monday in Barcelona where leaders in technology have gathered to discuss new products and innovations. Google’s SVP of products, Sundar Pichai, spoke yesterday and noted that we should start to see the results of the company’s MVNO mobile network effort in the “coming months.” The company plans to merge cell and WiFi networks throughout the U.S. to join the ring of wireless carriers. It’s been rumored that both Sprint and T-Mobile are working with Google to allow the company to run their MVNO off the existing cell network. Hinting at working with the existing carriers, Pichai said, “We don’t intend to be a network operator at scale. We are actually working with carrier partners. Will announce something in the coming months.”
