Read nowThis year you can connect in-person or online. From technicians and regulators, to founders and government delegations – whether it’s with a click of a button, a smile on screen, a friendly elbow bump, or a knowing nod, 2021 offers even more ways to seal that deal with the most influential attendees.
While there’s nothing that can beat face-to-face interaction to build truly strong relationships, the addition of digital products that aid virtual attendance allows connecting to become easier, more accessible and even smarter.
On the 28 June - 01 July 2021, MWC Barcelona will still be the place where our industry gathers to create connected impact for a thriving society. But now, it’s also the place where you can connect with industry decision makers attending in-person and logged on online too.
Get business done – In Barcelona, or from wherever you are in the world.
Digital technologies connect us in ways previously unimaginable. Internet access and the ability to shift to the ‘online’ has changed the way we live, socialize, work, produce and manage data – be it enabling a phone call to loved ones, delivering life changing digital services, enabling new businesses and industries, empowering less advantaged communities and democratising information and knowledge.
In this livestream we bring powerhouses: the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the GSMA together to discuss pathways for building an inclusive digital society, ones that maximize the opportunities from connectivity, understand the risks, and act to protect human rights.
Speakers
One venue, one ticket, one huge opportunity. This year, for the first time, 4YFN is in the heart of MWC Barcelona. So the most influential startup event in the world is now inside the world’s biggest gathering of key decision makers in the connectivity industry!
We caught up with Ana Maiques, CEO of Neuroelectrics, a company that’s working to minimize brain disabilities and improve the quality of life for patients. Read the story of Ana’s journey from a bankrupt company in Belgium, to a thriving startup operating out of Barcelona and Boston, and discover how sometimes the worst situations bring us opportunities to redefine and reinvent ourselves. Also, find out what her curious headpiece choice is all about!
