The organization of the Mobile World Congress (MWC) of Barcelona decided to cancel this year's event for fear of the coronavirus, after many of the companies that had to present were withdrawn.

John Hoffman, CEO of GSMA, the entity that brings together operators and telephone companies, told Bloomberg that "with due respect for the safe and healthy environment in Barcelona and the host country, the GSMA has canceled the MWC Barcelona 2020 because the worldwide concern about the outbreak of coronavirus, concern about travel and other circumstances, make it impossible for the event to be held.
