It is with special joy that the GTWN will bestow the GTWN Lifetime Achievement Award to Mats Granryd, CEO and Board Member GTWN on Monday 03 March 2025 at our traditional Welcome Cocktail, taking place at the iconic MOCO Museum, Barcelona.

Be it Open Gateway; be it as the first global professional organization to commit to the UN SDG’s; be it cultivating a Culture of People across the entire ecosystem; Mats Granryd has led our industry into a new era with integrity and credibility.

We are delighted to welcome Vusion Group – a world leader in sustainable, human-centered commerce technology, and TMCell – powering mobile telecommunications in Latin America and the Caribbean, as our gold sponsors for this year.

The GTWN will continue its tradition of holding its Welcome Cocktail in an iconic Barcelona building, this year none other than the Moco Museum in  El Born, Barcelona.  It is in the historic Palau Cervelló-Giudice, formerly the private residence of the noble Cervelló family until the 18th century. The building incorporates parts of a previous construction from the 15th century, evidenced by the interior courtyard, arched staircase with columns, capitals, and Renaissance-type mouldings. Furthermore, Palau Cervelló displays an impressive Gothic facade entryway.

**As always, we will be publishing GTWN’s flagship publication, The Mobile Century at the event.  This year’s theme is “Digital Humanism” and will include a commemorative section dedicated to Mats Granryd.

Invitation Only Event.  For more information, please contact Marge.Salem@gtwn.org
