‘4YFN’, Barcelona. Mobilium Global chief executive Ralph Simon seen reconnecting at 4YFN with John Hoffman, CEO & organiser of the Mobile World Congress conventions worldwide, CEO of the GSMA Ltd, 4YFN (Four Years From Now) & CEO of Barcelona Mobile World Capital.
Hoffman said: “The GSMA’s idea is always to do something to incubate companies & ideas that couldn’t afford to be at Mobile World Congress or weren’t yet ready for it. 4YFN has become a great mechanism to bring to Barcelona a different part of the digital & mobile ecosystem world: startups, new entrepreneurs & investors. We need to keep focusing on this ecosystem to help grow what will drive the mobile & innovation industry 4 years from now”.
MWC attracted 109,000 attendees from 198 countries including more than 7,900 CEOs & 2,400 companies. 4YFN attracted 23,000+ with its total focus on startups from more than 90 countries. The distinguished Israeli innovation expert Yossi Vardi chairs 4YFN.
