Opening remarks from Web Summit founder and CEO.

Welcome to Web Summit 2025

AI is reshaping the $680 billion sports industry - not just on the field, but in how we connect, compete, and experience the game. Join Maria Sharapova and Sarah Meron as they explore how the same AI powering leading enterprises is transforming sports organizations from the inside out. From optimizing team operations and athlete performance to creating richer fan experiences and building global communities, discover how technology is making sports more personal, precise, and powerful than ever. It's not just about who wins the match - it's about how the entire industry wins with AI.

Smarter plays: How AI is changing the game

One year after Visa officially validated creators as small businesses here at Web Summit, the creator economy continues to accelerate and evolve, and AI is opening new possibilities - but also raising big questions about ownership, originality, and income. Mark Nelsen from Visa joins TikTok phenom Khaby Lame to explore how technology, payments, and new financial tools are reshaping the business of creativity. The session will culminate with the unveiling of Visa’s newest product for creators - a must-see for anyone at the intersection of culture, commerce, and technology.

The new business of creativity

Few companies in history have scaled like this. In just eight months, Lovable went from idea to $100M ARR — faster than OpenAI, Wiz, or Cursor. In this fireside chat, CEO Anton Osika breaks down the idea that sparked it, the bold bets that got them here, and what comes next as Lovable aims to turn 2 million builders into 8 billion.
