MVNO Nation (www.mvnonation.com) held their Third Annual LIVE event November 6th-8th in beautiful Valencia, Spain. Despite the terrible storms and floods that brought havoc to the surrounding areas, MVNO Nation worked with local authorities to make sure that a safe event could take place. With that, almost 500 attendees and staff attended the three-day event that focused on uniting MVNO executives and partners to foster connections and facilitate future business.
I had the opportunity to present a new MVNO launching soon in December; NY Mobile (nymobile.com) which will be the first MVNO that will allow you to choose your own number. Customers will have the ability to select from a large inventory of highly coveted numbers in New York’s iconic and long-exhausted area codes, including 212, 718, and 917, as well as a wide range of numbers across all area codes and states nationwide. This was especially interesting to the European audience as many businesses and individuals need a US-based number to effectively conduct business in the United States.

I was also joined by three other wireless executives on a panel discussion that closed out the event on what opportunities still exist for MVNOs in the United States. We are going to re-create that live on December 11th.
WHAT WE’ll DISCUSS AT THIS LIVE EVENT:
- Why now is the perfect time for MVNOs to thrive in the US, with favorable market trends and increasing demand for diverse mobile solutions.
- How to tap into niche markets and deliver unique services to underserved consumer segments.
- Key obstacles like regulatory challenges and competitive pressures, plus strategies to overcome them.
- Innovative business models, from subscription-based services to community-focused approaches, that are reshaping the industry.
- Tips for building strong partnerships with carriers to drive sustainable growth and better service delivery.
- Insights into market conditions, tech advancements, and customer trends fueling opportunities for MVNOs in the US.

Ewa Campbell, co-founder of MVNO Nation told me:
“MVNO Nation Live is more than just a gathering- it’s where innovation, collaboration, and industry-shaping conversations take center stage. This year, we welcomed telco industry superstar Karim Taga, who gave us a fresh outlook on the future of MVNOs. We spotlighted ground-breaking case studies from Beyond ONE, Red Bull MOBILE Saudi offered by FNT, NiceMobil, Ventocom GmbH, Lebara, 1GLOBAL, Next Communications, and many more. And for the first time, we brought insights from the U.S. market, providing a platform for American players to share their perspectives and highlight new opportunities. It’s inspiring to see the connections and ideas that emerge from uniting such a unique community.”
Many attendees had very positive reactions to the conference.
