Who can I network with?

You can network with other GSMA event attendees who have also opted-in to networking. This includes attendees from other MWC and M360 events.

Can I opt-out of networking?

Yes, you can opt-out at any time by disabling the networking function within the app or by logging into your registration account and accessing the networking section

Can I prevent other users from messaging me on the app?

Yes, you can block users on the app. If you block another user, they will not be able to interact with or message you. GSMA is dedicated to providing a positive, harassment-free event experience for all participants. If you are subject to inappropriate conduct or made to feel unsafe, please email [email protected].

What is enhanced networking?

GSMA offers a curated networking service which proactively facilitates introductions between like-minded event attendees. If you opt-in to enhanced networking, we may use your professional profile to match you with an organisation who has expressed an interest in meeting people like you. If your profile matches their areas of interest, we will ask if you would like to be introduced to them. If you say yes, we will facilitate the introduction. If you say no, an introduction will not take place and your personal details will not be shared with the organisation.

Networking

How do I opt-in?

You can opt-in to enhanced networking when registering for the event or via the MWC Event Series app.

Networking

What happens if I decline an invitation to connect?

If you do not wish to meet an organisation, we will not share your details with them and no introduction will be made. They will not know that you declined their invitation.

Networking

How do I opt-out?

You can opt-out at any time by logging into your My MWC account and disabling the enhanced networking service. Once you opt-out, your profile will no longer be visible in the system and you will not be contacted for any introductions.

Networking

Are you providing a networking badge?

Yes.  Networking badges will be available for collection once inside the venue. Locations will be provided here nearer the event.

Networking

Can I use my networking badge to enter the venue?

No, networking badges are not permitted for venue access.  All attendees are required to show their Digital Access Pass either via the MWC Event Series App or from their registration account for entry.
