Some of our best networking happens away from the conference floor – at Night Summit, a series of parties and receptions for Web Summit attendees in Lisbon's most exciting entertainment and cultural venues. Partnering with Night Summit places your brand right at the centre of these events. It gives you the chance to continue conversations from the conference floor and engage with attendees in a more relaxed, informal setting. The logistics of general attendee Night Summit are managed with your partner success manager. Check out some of 2019’s Night Summit highlights.

Venue:

• Your Partner Success Manager will share the venue location with you once it has been confirmed.

Bar tab:

• We would highly recommend having a bar tab to enhance the attendee event experience. This can be arranged through your Partner Success Manager.

• A drinks menu selection will be shared with you for review and approval.

Photography:

• An official Web Summit photographer will be scheduled to shoot at each event.

Entertainment:

• Should you wish to hire entertainment for the General Attendee party, please inform your Partner Success Manager. All entertainment is subject to sign off by Web Summit.

Online and app branding:

• Your company will be featured in our event app and on our website.

Venue branding:

• All print, digital and marketing collateral associated with Night Summit must be co-branded to include the Web Summit Night Summit logo. Please review our brand guidelines here.

Social and content:

Additional branding and merchandise:

• Venues have guidelines on additional branding, so please discuss any ideas with your partner success manager in advance.

Attendee perks:

Create an exclusive offer (such as a free trial, or discounted access) of your product or service for Web Summit attendees, allowing you to generate leads before, during and after the event. See the attendee perks section for more information.

• To familiarise yourself with the venue, we suggest completing a walkthrough in advance with our team. Please confirm a time to do this with your partner success manager.

• To further promote your night event, consider running a competition or social media giveaway. This creates a fun atmosphere for attendees while also providing strategic value for the partner.

• To make the most of your night event, ensure your staff is well briefed on your objectives and audience.

• We suggest bringing a strong networking team with you to engage with the attendees, but be mindful that each venue has a capacity limit.

• To create a night our attendees will remember, think big when planning your activation and allow the budget, staffing and creativity to realise your vision.

• A free drink or bar tab is always greatly appreciated by the attendees. Please discuss this with your partner success manager.
