Web Summit is only 2 days away and Lisbon is getting ready to receive thousands of journalists, investors, startups, and speakers for what promises to be one of the biggest tech conferences of 2021.
While more than 140,000 people across 168 countries joined the 2020 edition of Web Summit, the event will be returning this year with an in-person experience for those in Lisbon. As is customary, organizations from different industries will be running side events to further expand the conference’s potential.
With a total of 45 side events and parties taking place between October 31st and November 6th, it is easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer number of opportunities. Unfortunately, even if you wanted to go to every side event available, you wouldn’t be able to do so… Compromising is necessary.
This being said, we can help you to get the best out of your visit to Lisbon by sharing a list of all the side events available during Web Summit 2022. This comprehensive list has been compiled by Startup Sesame, a network of tech events founded by Benjamin Costantini to help startups and entrepreneurs change the world via its tech event acceleration program. Let’s get to the list!
