Our startup programme

Are you a startup? Apply for our 2026 startup programme here: https://websummit.com/startups/.

Our startup program gives you the opportunity to join a community of startups, each chosen by the Web Summit team for their growth potential, uniqueness, and innovative ideas.

If you're selected, you'll receive a package of tickets to Web Summit, giving you and your team access to investor-to-startup meetings, PITCH, startup masterclasses, Mentor Hours, and other event activities. We hope to see you in Lisbon, November 9 - 12, 2026.
