28 July 2020, London: After the hugely successful inaugural Thrive China event, the GSMA today announced full details of the GSMA Thrive 2020 series of events. Through GSMA Thrive, the virtual convening platform gives participants the quality experience that they have come to expect from the world's leading mobile industry association. While the world adapts to the challenges of physical distancing, the GSMA continues to showcase world-class content and explore new ways for the industry to engage, interact and network. The GSMA is committed to unlocking the power of connectivity so that people, industry, and society thrive and are pleased to offer GSMA Thrive 2020 keynotes and online sessions to all attendees without charge.

GSMA Thrive China was our first foray into a virtual offering, to build relationships, deliver meaningful solutions for our future and continue to convene the global ecosystem, and it was a huge success, said John Hoffman, CEO GSMA Ltd. The GSMA Thrive platform shows how that while in-person events are not possible at this time, the GSMA is continuously creating ways to connect global decision-makers and industry leaders until we can all meet again in person.
