With February upon us, we’re just days away from touching down in Spain for MWC19 - Mobile World Congress - Barcelona, which runs from 25-28 February.

As the world’s largest mobile event, MWC19 is the place to see all the latest mobile innovations and leading-edge technology. With more than 107,000 professionals from over 200 countries representing a wide range of industry sectors expected to be in attendance this year, this event will be even bigger than ever.
