GSMA STATEMENT ON MWC 2020 & THE 10th MOBILE IOT SUMMIT 12 February 2020, Barcelona: Since the first edition of Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in 2006, the GSMA has convened the industry, governments, ministers, policymakers, operators and industry leaders across the broader ecosystem. With due regard to the safe and healthy environment in Barcelona and the host country today, the GSMA has cancelled MWC Barcelona 2020 and the 10th Mobile IoT Summit because the global concern regarding the coronavirus outbreak, travel concern and other circumstances, make it impossible for the GSMA to hold the event. Our sympathies at this time are with those affected in China, and all around the world. We appreciate your support and understanding and we look forward to welcoming you again at future events. Further updates from the GSMA, with regard to the main event, are on our website and can be found on https://www.mwcbarcelona.com |

Democratizing Location for the IoT The promise of IoT is billions of connected devices that will automate processes, maximize efficiencies, and deliver real time actionable intelligence for both consumer and enterprise use cases. Knowing the location of those billions of devices is a fundamental pillar that unleashes the real power and beauty of IoT. The critical dilemma is cost effectively locating a device whether its indoors, outdoors or somewhere in between. Polte’s Cloud Location over Cellular (C-LoC) technology is disrupting the economics of the IoT through collaborations with companies like Pebblebee. This presentation will outline the challenges of delivering everywhere location for the IoT, explain how Polte’s C-LoC technology cost effectively solves these issues, and demonstrate how Pebblebee’s ultra-small cellular IoT tracking devices have fueled enterprise use cases. |
