iconectiv withdraws from MWC Barcelona 2020 over coronavirus-related concerns
BRIDGEWATER, NJ – February 10, 2020 - After closely monitoring the spread of the novel coronavirus and in reviewing travel recommendations from world health organizations, iconectiv has decided to withdraw its attendance at MWC Barcelona and all related events as we believe it is in the best interest of our employees to do so.
As the largest telecom event in the world, MWC draws more than 100,000 attendees from nearly 200 countries. The sheer size and global nature of the event makes it difficult to ensure the health and safety of our team members, which is our top priority.
