MWC 2024 was my first international media junket where I represented Business Insider India. While we had agents guiding us through out the event, there is some informal guidance which I lacked. Now that my bandwidth is getting open slowly, I found some time to put together a - guide! Some suggestions and walk through around MWC. Fortunately they are applicable across the globe, if you read it with context. I will also circle back to this, if I get an opportunity again for MWC. Here I describe - -Travel Plans -Arrival in Barcelona -Planning the coverage -My media kit- how I used Apple iPhone & Macbook to pull of 12 videos alone, without a dedicated camera person.

DE and its mobile internet and cell phone connectivity. This evening, while traveling via DeutscheBahn from Berlin to Cologne, I needed to have a phone call with a friend of mine to coordinate our next possible collaboration moves. We started our call at around Hamm therefore entering a densely populated area of Germany to ensure a good connectivity. We could not speak for 5min straight without loosing our already poor-quality cell phone audio connection. Internet video call via Teams or GoogleMeets was not even an option in the first place. While this was already the case 5 years ago the world moved on. The DeutscheBahn was and is still firmly standing still. Not a fine move for a transportation service. The service they advertise is not only transportation so(which was bad and becomes statistically proven worse each year) but to be able to be productive in this timeframe. The quality of all component combined is therefore so far behind every other nation that I cannot think of any country I visited in the last 10 years delivering less. While the prices are even in the TOP3 of this list. Germany is less and less attractive to do business in these days.
