In a statement from CEO GSMA Limited John Hoffman, concern for the health and safety of participants was the deciding factor. “Since the first edition of Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in 2006,” Hoffman said, “the GSMA has convened the industry, governments, ministers, policymakers, operators and industry leaders across the broader ecosystem. With due regard to the safe and healthy environment in Barcelona and the host country today, the GSMA has cancelled MWC Barcelona 2020 because the global concern regarding the coronavirus outbreak, travel concern and other circumstances, make it impossible for the GSMA to hold the event,” he said.

  • K-12 Bridge to Broadband” Initiative to Help Connect Students to Broadband for Remote and Hybrid Learning
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE September 10, 2020 NCTA CONTACT: ESH CONTACT: Brian Dietz Victoria Holmes [email protected] [email protected] 202-258-2881 (mobile) 248-872-9099 (mobile) U.S. Cable Industry Announces New “K-12 Bridge to Broadband” Initiative to Help Connect Students to Broadband for Remote and Hybrid Learning In partnership with national non-profit EducationSuperHighway, NCTA members will launch programs that enable school districts to identify students without broadband and purchase service for low-income families Today, NCTA – the Internet & Television Association, a leading broadband technology trade association in partnership with EducationSuperHighway (ESH), a national non-profit that led the work to close the classroom connectivity gap— announced a new initiative to help increase home connectivity solutions for students, as many schools adapt to remote and hybrid learning classrooms amid the coronavirus pandemic. The K-12 Bridge to Broadband initiative will scale innovative solutions that are helping public school districts and states identify and potentially connect students in low-income families, enabling more students to participate in remote or hybrid learning. In announcing the K-12 Bridge to Broadband program, NCTA and ESH released a framework of core principles that will support the initiative from leading cable internet service providers for working with school districts or states to better identify unconnected, but serviceable, student households and to offer sponsored service arrangements that can potentially connect students in this school year. Since the pivot to remote learning began in the spring, many school districts have struggled to determine which families lack internet access at home. Building on the recent successful school district partnerships in Chicago, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Las Vegas, Des Moines and several other cities, the new initiative will help school districts efficiently identify students without service at home.
