MWC Barcelona 2026 was our first major international stage — four days at the Netherlands Pavilion showing operators, partners, and investors what TEASOL Exchange looks like in practice. No slides, no pitch decks. Just the platform, live. Here's a full recap.
Netherlands Pavilion, Stand CS54
We joined the Netherlands delegation at Congress Square, one of the most active areas of the Fira Barcelona Gran Via. The Netherlands Pavilion brought together a strong group of Dutch deep-tech companies, and TEASOL was proud to represent the Eindhoven ecosystem alongside them.
Our stand featured a large live display running the TEASOL Exchange platform throughout the event — no slide decks, no mockups, just the actual product. Visitors could see active contracts, operator dashboards, and the matching engine in real time.

TEASOL Exchange: Live on the Floor
The core of our presence at MWC was a fully interactive live demo of TEASOL Exchange — the neutral, AI-enabled coordination layer that automates network capacity sharing between MNOs, MVNOs, neutral host providers, and private networks.
We ran three specific demo scenarios, each designed to reflect a real challenge operators face today. Every scenario played out on the actual platform — giving visitors a concrete look at how demand analysis, automated matching, and contract execution could work end to end.

Four Days in Barcelona
Beyond the formal demos, MWC is about conversations. We spent four days meeting operators, technology partners, investors, and fellow founders. The interest in automated network sharing — and the frustration with the current state of manual, bilateral processes — was consistent across every discussion.
We also had the opportunity to participate in the Netherlands Pavilion's on-stage programme. Oguz Oktay joined a live fireside interview, sharing TEASOL's vision for what the next phase of network sharing infrastructure looks like — and why now is the right moment.
The Team on the Ground
MWC is a team effort. From setting up the stand and running demos back-to-back to hosting conversations late into the evenings — everyone showed up fully. We're grateful for the energy the team brought to Barcelona.

What We Heard
A few themes came up repeatedly in conversations across the show floor — both validating what we're building and sharpening our thinking on where to focus next.
- The problem is well-understood. Operators know that network sharing should scale further than it does — but bespoke bilateral integrations, competitive distrust, and management complexity keep it limited. There was no need to sell the problem.
- Neutrality is a key requirement. Across every segment — MNOs, MVNOs, neutral host providers — the value of a genuinely neutral broker was consistently cited. No single operator should be in control of the exchange.
- OSS/BSS integration matters. Operators want a solution that works with their existing stack, not a rip-and-replace. The Exchange's integration-first design resonated strongly.
- Private networks are a growing priority. The appetite for dynamic, on-demand capacity access from enterprise and industrial operators was higher than we expected. This is a use case we're accelerating.
- AI forecasting for demand prediction is differentiated. The combination of predictive demand analysis with automated matching was consistently highlighted as something meaningfully beyond what existing solutions offer.
What Comes Next
MWC was a beginning, not an end. The conversations started in Barcelona are continuing, and we're now in discussions with a number of operators across the Netherlands, Germany, France, and Spain about friendly trials in 2026.
If you were at MWC and didn't get a chance to connect — or if you're exploring what automated network sharing could mean for your operations — we'd be glad to continue the conversation.
