FAQ – Mobile World Congress

How does the event work?

ShowStoppers combines a product showcase, hands-on demos, and a relaxed reception into one efficient event. It’s an informal ambiance that includes a buffet and open bars.

Exhibitors arrive 2 to 3 hours prior to the event to set up, and to eat something before the event begins. As journalists arrive, ShowStoppers checks them in to ensure they were invited. Making their way around the room during the event, they can meet with exhibitors and test their products.
