A warm welcome to the spring edition of our newsletter.

On the occasion of this year's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona at the beginning of March, we are extremely happy that we were part of this event. Our colleagues, Beniamin Longodor, Michael Hoffmann, Hector Delgado, and Johannes Stürzlinger happily represented NTS Retail on-site and now gladly look back on many insightful conversations with customers and partners from all over the globe. 

Apart from our recap of this year's #MWC22, we also want to share our latest case study about the project we rolled out for Bouygues Telecom.  

This newsletter will also include our report about this year's 'Innovation Week' and introduce you to the project that students tackled together with NTS Retail. 

Last but not least, we'd like to share our impressions of the Austrian Red Cross social market initiative, which we supported with the collection of donated goods. 

We hope you enjoy reading our newsletter! 

Update: #MWC22 recap

After the Mobile World Congress took place a bit later than usual last year, this year it finally returned to its springtime slot in Barcelona. More than 61,000 visitors and 1,900 exhibitors in total were present at the event, among them our dear colleagues. Our on-site team enjoyed the countless interactions with customers and partners and returned home with many positive impressions. The event revolved around upcoming industry trends and set a focus on 5G connectivity and its related use cases for this year's event. Click here to read our #MWC22 recap: 

Case study: Bouygues Telecom

Following the report about our visit to Bouygues Telecom in Paris in the previous newsletter, we are very pleased to finally share the case study concerning the digitalization project we rolled out together with our customer. Our goal was to introduce our Point-of-Sale system and therefore provide employees with a high degree of mobility when selling products and simultaneously enable transparent monitoring of cashflows. Amongst other things, the project posed some challenges such as compliance with French fiscalization (NF525) law and its rollout amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Read our case study and obtain thrilling insights into the project. 

Blog post: Innovation Week at University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria

Once again, the annual 'Innovation Week' held by the University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria took place in Linz. At NTS Retail, we are especially eager to participate in this initiative, as the event provides an excellent opportunity for talented students to tackle realistic problems proposed by regional companies in the scope of a 'design thinking workshop'. Visit our website and discover more about how the students approached our task and what conclusions could be drawn from their findings. 

News: NTS Retail supports Austrian Red Cross social market project in Leonding with donations

We continue with a topic that has been on our minds for a very long time now: The keyword poverty is still highly relevant and concerns a large portion of the population, even in a wealthier country like Austria. From a financial perspective, these last two years have been hard on many Austrian families, which is why NTS Retail decided to step up and support the Austrian Red Cross social market project with the donation of goods, such as non-perishable food and sanitary products. These social markets, which are scattered all over the country, serve as the perfect marketplace for people in need to buy their groceries at a heavily discounted price. Obtain insights into the project and find out how we supported the initiative. 

We hope you enjoyed reading through our newsletter and found it informative. Feel free to share it with your colleagues and on social media!
