Oct 13, 2021

Between the 1^st – 4^th November the largest tech event in Europe will be held once again in Lisbon, Portugal. Approximately 40,000 attendees are expected in the beginning of November at Altice Arena and FIL. With the pandemic controlled and the vaccination process at a good pace, the event will return to a face-to-face set-up this year.

More than 700 speakers will be joining the Web Summit, as well as over 1,250 start-ups. Several Portuguese Government officials, as well as the President of the Republic, will attend the event.

Participants only need to present the EU Digital Covid Certificate, or a valid vaccination/recovery certificate issued by a third country under reciprocal conditions with Portugal; or a negative PCR or antigen test, taken 72 hours or 48 hours before respectively. All attendees will be required to wear mask indoors, and outdoors within event access lines.

This is an extremely important event to the country, not only from a touristic point of view but also to pin out Portugal as a tech hub worldwide.
