Mobile in Macau
I’m posting this from the GSMA’s Mobile Asia Congress event in Macau, where I’m speaking on a panel session this Wednesday.
Similar to the MWC in Barcelona each year, the venue threatens to overshadow the conference. We’re at the Venetian Hotel & Casino, on Macau’s Cotai Strip, and the sheer enormity of this structure is an experience to behold.
