A MASSIVE group of 95 speakers will come together for the Smart Island World Congress in Calvia on April 23.
They will talk about a huge range of issues including tackling tourism challenges for small islands, as well as climate change and technological innovation.
The two-day event, now in its second year, brings together representatives from islands around the world.
A variety of local issues to be tackled include the big price increases of cars in the Balearics, as well as a shortage of out-of-season fruits and vegetables.
The increased prices in shops like IKEA and Media Markt and the fact that Amazon almost never delivers within two days will also be debated.
