This time next week anyone going to Mobile World Congress in Barcelona will no doubt be craving a break from tortilla and vino…so as we dig out our suitcases and blister plasters, we have put together some hints and tips to take a quick look at over the next couple of days. Don’t forget too to take a look at our MWC predictions - have we got them right? https://lnkd.in/e3ZqtK-V Let us know. Wishing everyone a safe flight ✈️ 🩹 When packing this weekend, remember your flat shoes, battery packs, phone chargers, adapter plugs, plasters, paracetamol, sunglasses and hand gel 🩹Be careful about what you talk about on the plane. You don’t know who will be listening - take care to safeguard any confidential information 🩹Read your briefing materials carefully in advance of the show - this weekend is an ideal time to get ahead 🩹Have a spin around the show on day 1 and be prepared to comment on what you have found interesting 🩹 Come prepared with bold opinions on the trends you are seeing 🩹 Be aware of the news announced at the show - check the telecoms trade press daily - they’ll cover all the main stories with useful analysis 🩹 Don’t be late for your media / analyst briefings - they are just as important as your other meetings 🩹 Ask the journalists / analysts questions too - they have opinions and insights that are valuable to listen to 🩹 Share any press coverage across your social media channels to amplify awareness - for both you and the media 🩹 Thank the journalists / analysts for their time and follow up with further information you promise 🩹 Take your pass off once you leave the Fira - be weary of pick pockets 🩹 Have fun and network! The best meetings are those away from the show #mwc2024 #techpr

I hope Adam Mills FIHE doesn’t mind me nicking his picture for this post but the challenges facing Traffic Management as people on the ground see it are not on this list. You know them people lm talking about, don’t you? The people that actually put the jobs on, experience the difficult situations, the people given plans by incompetent planners, the people there by themselves in dangerous situations as the budget doesn’t allow for a trainee, you know them people. Them people who haven’t been given adequate training, don’t have any competency checks, training in historical scenarios, drugs and drink testing and finally them people who don’t even know what the mission or objectives of Traffic Management are. THEM PEOPLE! I just had a read of the titles for these two days in the Safety & Sustainability Theatre. Jesus Christ l had to down a bottle of Gaviscon with 6 Rennie. A particularly interesting title was “increasing Road Safety through effective Traffic Control design” . Simple explanation to that is, we have 4 designs of Traffic Control that when implemented CORRECTLY by PROFFESSIONLLY TRAINED STAFF they work just fine. Get out of your van, smile now and again, patrol the site, help an elderly lady and interact with the public.

It is this time of the year… where you open LinkedIn and you think nothing else is happening than the NACS Show… as everyone is posting their arrivals, schedules, show floor setup, meetings, fun, … For me today it was day1 of the show: - NACS / EMA joint session for Industry Association Executives. A forum for the association from all US states to come together to network and to share latest policy developments. Focus topics this year were credit card fees, organized retails crime and our response as an industry as well as impact of the upcoming US election. - Global Government Affairs Council. A platform, where NACS invites the executives of more than 20 likeminded associations from around the world to join for half a day of networking and learning from each other on policy developments, measures for or against it and their success factors. The most pressing policy topics we discussed were: increasing retail crime, the future of nicotine, electrification of mobility and payment solutions. 🇦🇺 AACS (Australian Association of Convenience Stores) , 🇬🇧 Association of Convenience Stores , 🇳🇿 NZACS, 🇮🇪 Ibec , 🇬🇧 Retail NI, 🇦🇺 Australasian Convenience and Petroleum Marketers Association (ACAPMA) , 🇧🇷 SINDICOM , 🇳🇴 Hovedorganisasjonen Virke , 🇨🇦 CEMA , 🇵🇱 Popihn, 🇸🇪 Convenience Stores Sweden , 🇷🇺 GASAD , 🇿🇦 Fuel Retailers Association , 🇩🇪 Bundesverband Freier Tankstellen (bft) , 🇰🇷 Korean Oil Association, 🇨🇳 CCFA, 🇳🇱 NSO Retail - NACS staff tour: our own sneak peek of where is what. An opportunity to see the behind the scenes before everything opens. And a good opportunity to faniliarize ourselves so that we can answer all the questions from our 25000 best friends… - NACS/EMA Association Executives reception. A networking reception, bringing together our US state associations and the at the show participating global association heads for exetended networking. Can’t wait for day 2 (and 3… and 4… ) 🎶Vivaaaaaa Las Vegas🎶 #nacsglobal #nacsshow
