A 'Meetup' is a small gathering where attendees network based on common interests, community or industry. Meetups give attendees the chance to meet new people and make new connections in informal settings during Web Summit – day and night. We’ll make sure you’re invited to some that we think you’ll enjoy.
Meetups are 20- to 50-minute sessions taking place in multiple “Meetup Areas” around the event venue.
The most popular Meetups at Web Summit include a mix of speaker-led, industry, country, and community-specific sessions, such as:
Q&A with Dr. Cornel West, Professor, Author, and 2024 U.S. Presidential Candidate
Women in Tech 💃🏼@ Web Summit Vancouver
Founders and CEOs | AI & Machine Learning
Brazil 🇧🇷@ Web Summit
