Connecting generations
Discover emporia Telecom’s latest products and services which bring generations closer together through better communications.
At Mobile World Congress, we see lots of brand new technology, most of which is not simple or straightforward. It can be a lot to take in. Ask yourself this: how many times have your parents asked for help when using the latest gadget?
emporia helps everyone feel more included in modern communications by ensuring simplicity comes first.
As smart as needed, as simple as possible.
This was the idea behind creating emporia’s latest mobile phone – emporiaCONNECT Working closely with the University of Cambridge, emporia has designed a phone that is incredibly easy to use. emporiaCONNECT features a large high-resolution display and a high quality camera, but what makes it really stand out is the way it works with other family member’s smartphones.This unique multi-generational approach is a great new way for families to share the moments they love with the older generation through their mobile phone.
Come by the booth in Hall3/C124, and see how communication can reconnect the
generations. We are looking forward to seeing you there!
In 2012, emporia will once again attend the world’s largest trade fair for the mobile communications industry. Visit us from February 27th til March 1st in hall 8 at booth A139 to see the whole portfolio and all the new products from emporia.

What's a pin-code? Why do I need a SIM-card? How do I write an SMS? What should I do if my prepaid card is empty? What happens if the battery is empty? Modern technology opens a lot of questions that might make you insecure. emporia wants to give you more advice and confidence around new technology.

The setting of the competition "einfach telefonieren" in Germany, Austria and Switzerland was unique. For the first time ever people with live experience over the age of 50 were asked to present and discuss their ideas online. A high-class jury picked the best ideas. We will follow up with competitions in other countries shortly.
