In 2024, Web Summit plans to hold a new event in Doha, Qatar[10][11]
On January 24, 2024, Katherine Maher announced her departure as CEO of Web Summit to become CEO of National Public Radio (NPR).[12] In April 2024, Web Summit staff were told Cosgrave had decided to return as CEO.[13]
Web Summit is set to debut a new conference in Qatar in February 2024. The exhibition will take place at the DECC and is expected to attract thousands of international entrepreneurs, investors, and leaders in the tech world.[14]"
2023
In October 2023, a number of sponsors and technology companies like Meta, Google, and Amazon cancelled their participation[15] due to the founder's statement on X (formerly Twitter) regarding the Israel–Hamas war, in which he asserted that he was "shocked at the rhetoric and actions of so many Western leaders and governments, with the exception in particular of Ireland’s government, who for once are doing the right thing"[16] following the Irish Taoiseach, Leo Varadkar, saying that solidarity with Israel "will fall apart" if the response to Hamas' assault "goes too far."[17]
Hours after Cosgrave's tweets, Israel's ambassador in Lisbon, Dor Shapira, vehemently repudiated Cosgrave and publicly informed the city's mayor that his country would boycott the event.[18] Cosgrave later apologized, defending "Israel's right to exist and to defend itself", thus condemning Hamas.[19] Cosgrave resigned as CEO on October 21, 2023, stating that "my personal comments have become a distraction from the event, and our team, our sponsors, our startups and the people who attend".[20][21]Katherine Maher was later appointed CEO to replace Cosgrave.[22] In January 2024 it was announced that Maher would be cease to be CEO on 1 March to take up the position of chief executive at NPR.[23]
In November 2023, Web Summit announced the launch of a new conference in Doha, Web Summit Qatar. The conference will take place from February 26–29 in 2024.[24]
2022
Pertaining to the Web Summit 2022 here is item 21 from that year's revitalised Irish Annals, called De Reir Book of Moytura regarding an argybargy in which Mr. Cosgrave supported certain gentlemen of the press against pressured opinion.
2020
In December 2020, Web Summit announced the launch of a new conference in Japan, Web Summit Tokyo. The company also announced that the Asia-focused RISE Conference will be moving to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Both conferences are scheduled to be held as in-person events in 2022.[25][26]
2019
Web Summit 2019 took place in Portugal, from November 4 to November 7 at the Altice Arena & Fil in Lisbon, Portugal.[27] Some of the speakers included Edward Snowden; former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair; former professional boxer Wladimir Klitschko; Jaden Smith; Guo Ping (Rotating Chairman of Huawei) and Katherine Maher (former CEO of Wikimedia Foundation).[28]
Nutrix won Web Summit PITCH competition for the most ambitious early-stage startups. 900 startups participated.[29]
It was announced that Marine Le Pen of the National Rally would be one of the speakers, which caused controversy.[31][32][33][34] Paddy Consgrave initially argued that despite her "wrongheaded" politics, he felt that her views would be adequately challenged by professional journalists.[35][31][32][33][34] As a result of criticism, Paddy Cosgrave announced on Twitter that the invitation to her would be rescinded.[31][32][33][34]
Web Summit 2017 took place in the Altice Arena in Lisbon from November 6–9. The event promised to bring 60,000 attendees from over 160 countries together.[36]
A dinner that was held in the National Pantheon was criticised by Portuguese Prime Minister António Costa who said it was "unworthy of the respect due" to the National Monument.[39] He said that although it was legal, it was because the previous government had allowed what he called "offensive use of this monument".[39] Paddy Cosgrave tweeted his apologies.[39]
In September 2015 Web Summit co-founder and CEO Paddy Cosgrave announced that the event would be held in Lisbon for three consecutive editions, from 2016 to 2018.[40] Cosgrave cited the local startup scene and a "cosmopolitan city with better infrastructure conditions and a larger number of hotel rooms" for the decision.[41]
The three-day event held from November 7–10 at the Altice Arena, site of Expo '98, drew 53,056 attendees from more than 150 countries and more than 1,500 start-ups spread over 21 venues.[42]
Some of those who had paid up to €5,000 for tickets into the event were unable to get into the event and had to watch it on a screen outside.[45]
2015
Web Summit 2015
Web Summit 2015 was held over three days from 3 November until the 5 November at the RDS in Dublin. Over 42,000 people attended the event over the three days. Speakers included Ed Catmull of Pixar, Michael Dell, Bill Ford and Chris Froome.
In September 2015, Web Summit announced that they would be moving the event from Dublin to Lisbon. Following the announcement, organisers released email correspondence between the Irish Government and Web Summit CEO Paddy Cosgrave about hotel costs, traffic, and other issues surrounding the infrastructure in Dublin. This led to a debate in the Irish media about the support the Government had provided to the event since it began and what future promises they could make.[46]
Problems arose with the Wi-Fi,[47] but on a lesser scale than in 2014. The invitation to the Taoiseach was sent after 9pm on the Friday, with the event opening on the following Monday evening.[48]
Web Summit 2014 was held over three days and consisted of nine stages or Summits as they are known; Centre, Machine, Enterprise, Marketing, Builders, Society, Sport, Film, and Music. Eva Longoria, Peter Thiel, and Bono were among the speakers that spoke over the three-day event, with attendance of 22,000 people from 109 countries.[49][50]
On Day 1 there were problems with the WiFi network and Web Summit founder Paddy Cosgrave took to the stage on two occasions to apologise for the connectivity problems. The RDS defended their technical set-up with CEO Michael Duffy saying, "The WiFi has successfully responded to the exceptional demands placed on it. This is an unprecedented WiFi density compared to similar European tech events." Attendees were mostly disparaging in their remarks, with some deriding it on social media as "the most Irish thing ever".[51]
International broadcasters including CNBC, CNN, Fox Business News, Bloomberg, Sky News, Al Jazeera and the BBC all covered the event.
After the announcement of the decision to move the 2016 Web Summit to Lisbon, several Irish technology correspondents cited the WiFi debacle as one major push factor behind the move.[52][53]
The event was expanded in its scope with a number of side-events launching as part of it, including the Night Summit,[55] a series of after-hours events featuring musicians from throughout the world, and the Food Summit, a two-day showcase of gourmet Irish Food.[56]
Irish Prime Minister, Enda Kenny, also opened the NASDAQ Market from the Web Summit, the first time it was opened outside of New York since the Facebook IPO.[57] The event was covered substantially in the international media with Bloomberg Television, CNN, the Wall Street Journal, and Wired covering the event.[54]
2012
Web Summit 2012
In 2012, 4,200 people attended Web Summit. approximately 40% of these came from companies based in Ireland (which provides a European HQ for several major tech companies) and 60% came from companies based elsewhere in Europe. Speakers included Tim Armstrong, Wael Ghonim, and Arkady Volozh.
A number of companies from across the world also launched their new products or made announcements as part of the event.[58]
2009–2011
Dublin Web Summit 2011
The first Web Summit was a mix of bloggers, journalists, and technologists in a hotel on the outskirts of Dublin.[59] Panelists and speakers included Iain Dale, the political blogger, Ben Hammersley of the Guardian, and Ian Douglas of the Daily Telegraph. In 2010 it was a meet-up for 400 or so of the local technology community in the Chartered Accountants House in Dublin. Speakers were mainly local entrepreneurs, business people, and investors.[60] In 2011, the event tripled in size and moved to the Royal Dublin Society. Speakers included Chad Hurley, Jack Dorsey, and Matt Mullenweg.
