GSMA shared new details about the forthcoming 2013 GSMA Mobile World Congress which will be held 25-28 February 2013 at Fira Gran Via in Barcelona. The organization announced that the CEOs of NTT DOCOMO and Vodafone will be delivering keynote addresses in the Mobile World Congress conference programme, as well as new exhibiting companies, sponsors, partners and event elements for the show. We won’t go into much details here — check out the official press release if you need all the names — but we’ll rather share the main points.
The MWC 2013 will be attended by all major players in the industry, except Apple, which for better or worse is only present at its own gigs. Those visiting the show will be able to check out pavilions focusing on various elements of the mobile ecosystem, such as Embedded Mobile Devices, Green Technology, Mobile Cloud, Mobile Health, and NFC and Mobile Money; as well as country pavilions.
In addition, this year’s MWC will (again) also host few sub-events like mPowered Brands Programme, App Planet: The Centre of the Apps Universe, Forum Series, LTE TDD/FDD International Summit and GSMA Ministerial Programme. As usual, you can get all the details from MWC’s official website.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
