Event Description

Politico has said we run “the world’s premier tech conference”, the Atlantic that Web Summit is “where the future goes to be born”, and the New York Times that we assemble “a grand conclave of the tech industry’s high priests”. At a time of great uncertainty for many industries and, indeed, the world itself, we gather policymakers, heads of state, and the founders and CEOs of technology companies and fast-growing startups, to ask a simple question: Where to next?

Why will 70,000+ gather in Lisbon?

We’re proud of our track record when it comes to live events. The Guardian called us “Glastonbury for geeks”. Inc called us “the best technology conference on the planet”.
