Web Summit is “where the future goes to be born”

Politico said we run “the world’s premier tech conference”, the Atlantic that Web Summit is “where the future goes to be born”, and Reuters that we assemble “the biggest names in tech and business”.

Web Summit Rio is part of the roster of international events organized by Web Summit, taking to the world stage alongside Web Summit in Lisbon, Web Summit Qatar in Doha, Collision in Toronto and RISE in Hong Kong. In 2024, Web Summit Rio gathered more than 34,000 people at Riocentro.

Why will 34,000+ people gather in Rio de Janeiro?

Three reasons: incredible speakers eager to share expertise, unparalleled networking opportunities with entrepreneurs, and proprietary software that will maximize your experience.

South American tech is thriving, and the startup ecosystem in Brazil is holding its own amid a LatAm funding downturn. That’s why we think there’s no better city to host a South American gathering of the global tech community than Rio.
