Environmental activists Greenpeace disrupted Samsung’s event at MWC on Sunday. At issue is Samsung’s handling of the millions of Samsung Galaxy Note 7 handsets that the company needs to dispose of.
While Samsung Europe’s Chief Marketing Officer David Lowes was making his opening statement, a protestor stood on the steps of the stage holding a banner with the recycling logo. The banner read #Galaxy Note 7 and “Rethink, Reuse, Recycle,” which prompted the Samsung executive to tell the activist, “You’ve made your point.”
