BARCELONA<\/a>: Geopolitics<\/a> and technology intertwined at the Mobile World Congress<\/a> this week as more than 61,000 people gathered in the Spanish city of Barcelona even as Russia's invasion of Ukraine<\/a> overshadowed one of the pandemic's most-attended conferences.

GSMA, the organiser of the telecoms industry's four-day biggest annual gathering, condemned Moscow's actions and barred the Russian pavilion.

Before the start of the congress, it had said a handful of
Russian firms<\/a> and people would be banned because of sanctions, but declined to specify how many did not come beyond saying the impact was minimal.

In-person conferences worldwide came to a halt at the start of the pandemic and are only slowing picking up again. Last year's MWC only drew about 20,000 attendees, a far cry from 110,000 in 2019. Other events such as CES in
Las Vegas<\/a> attracted around 45,000 attendees earlier this year, down from 200,000 before the pandemic.

The number of attendees at this year's MWC exceeded expectations.

\"I think the level of enthusiasm has never been greater, the need of having this show has never been greater,\" Mats Granryd, director general of organizer GSMA told Reuters.

He said the pandemic has made people appreciate the benefits of socialising at large conferences, visible in packed networking terraces across the sprawling congress grounds.

Top executives of companies from more than 100 countries took the stage to condemn Russia's invasion, announce a halt to their Russia operations and detail support for local employees.

Software publisher Kaspersky Labs was one of the Russian companies present, while
Ukraine's biggest mobile operator<\/a> Veon<\/a> was also there.

Some attendees wore ribbons in
Ukraine's national colours<\/a>, handed out by protesters who gathered at the entrance holding a sign that read \"Cut Russia off, no tech for aggressor\".

But on the crowded floors of the event, telecom buzzwords such as 5G and edge computing were still the most-discussed topics.

面对面的会议在世界范围内大流行开始时停了下来,只是放缓再次拾起。去年的还只吸引了大约20000名与会者,从110000年的2019人相去甚远。CES等其他活动拉斯维加斯今年早些时候吸引了大约45000名与会者,从200000年前的大流行。

与会者的数量在今年的最有可能超出预期。

“我认为水平的热情从未像现在这样巨大的需要表现出从来没有大,“垫Granryd,主任组织者GSMA告诉路透。

的公司高管来自100多个国家的谴责俄罗斯入侵一同上台,宣布停止其俄罗斯业务和细节支持当地雇员。

软件出版商卡巴斯基实验室的俄罗斯公司,乌克兰最大的移动运营商 Veon也有。

一些与会者穿着丝带乌克兰的国家颜色,由抗议者聚集在门口拿着一个牌子,上面写“侵略者切断俄罗斯,没有科技”。

但是在拥挤的活动地板,电信术语如5 g和边缘计算仍成了主题。
