Day Two of the Mobile World Congress begins to really put the networking pressure on, as the 60,000-plus participants find their groove and start to make the most of this once-a-year opportunity to network and connect on all things mobile.

You will be glad you have your MWC accommodation sorted and that you are a little bit separate from the pack by now.

We recommend a shortstay apartments rental in Eixample Esquerra near La Fira de Barcelona or in the Barcelona city centre when you attend the Mobile World Congress 2012. You will appreciate the privacy and space of an apartment, rather than having to head back to the four-walled bed-perimeter of a hotel room.

You can host new networking colleagues after the day's formal proceedings are over, or hide from the constant industry buzz in order to restock and connect with your world beyond the mobile industry.

Day Two includes keynote speakers in the morning, and a series of workshops and breakout information sessions in the afternoon, before the industry's annual Global Mobile Awards Presentation at night.

The Mobile World Congress organizers have obviously set up the second day for this industry event in order to harness the social atmosphere of the participants: it is the perfect opportunity to meet colleagues and new contacts in a comfortable and hospitable setting early on in the conference timeline so you can cement the relationships over the next few days as the MWC continues.

For those who are speaking or taking a leading role at the Apps Conference the following day, the awards event may be worth a quick look-see before heading back to your MWC accommodation to plan and go over your materials one final time. You can cook yourself a meal, or spread out your work in comfort in your Barcelona apartments stay while you put the finishing touches on your presentation.

The Mobile World Congress is a signature event for the Barcelona business calendar, and the whole city is proud to be hosting the industry for the last week of February in 2012. From 27 February to 1 March, the city comes alive with its responsibilities and well-earned stripes as the world's first Mobile City.

Participants can feel comfortable in making use of the worldclass venue of Fira de Barcelona, can easily travel between their MWC accommodation and congress locations, and can draw on the hospitable locals who are only too willing to make sure that as industry guests, you get the most out of your Barcelona stay.
