I have always used whisky, kilts, tartan, and bagpipes to promote the fact that my business ventures are from Scotland. We get away with playing the bagpipes at an exhibition only once a day (and when there are no conferences simultaneously), but the whisky works all day and into the night... Barcelona's MWC is a huge event at the Fira de Barcelona site, and this sort of collaboration will serve these companies well - they all benefit from higher visibility, and a private lounge is just what you need to talk serious business at this type of multi-day conference and trade fair. With their own lounge, they'll be in good shape to talk to the right people, and can't fail to be seen. Smart move by IMA and their members. Now all they need are rooms in a hotel near Plaza España that serves breakfast at 4am... Nationalism 2.0 makes sense in a marketing sense.
