Web Summit x Crunchbase report 2025: AI takes top spot as startups raise $715.5M after Web Summit
November 10, 2025 - 2 min read

Tomorrow, for the first time in 10 years in Lisbon, we are expecting heavy rain throughout the day. We use over 100,000 sqm of outdoor space for networking, food trucks, meet-ups and circulation during Web Summit.
We have a plan in place, but at times tomorrow indoor areas may become even more crowded than normal. Attendees are permitted by police to bring small, retractable umbrellas. We would advise carrying one tomorrow, just in case.
Sorry about the rain, but the show must go on.
