Web Summit Qatar ・ January 31 - February 3, 2027

Machine Summit

The age of super apps is upon us.
Super apps are one-stop shops for ride hailing, shopping, transferring money, ordering food, and whatever else you want to do. We explore how they can help create better cities in our near future.

How super apps can create better cities

A pioneering company at the cutting edge of robotics showcases its vision for the future of robotic technology that interacts with the world.

Welcome to the future of mobile robots

The automotive industry is undergoing a massive transformation.  We explore how products are evolving and how automotive software is driving this transformation.

Accelerating automotive transformation with GenAI

Artificial general intelligence (AGI) should not be a scary prospect. While AGI can carry huge risks in the wrong hands, humankind has an opportunity to ensure that no single person or organisation ever has total control of it.
When everybody can participate in the development of AGI, it can be highly beneficial – and, in Desdemona&#8217;s case, even entertaining – for all.

What does it take to launch (and land) a breakthrough when failure is part of the roadmap? And how are manufacturers of robots, auto, and spacetech adopting their models to accommodate both the fast-shifting appetites of customers and rates of innovation that are hard to keep up with?

AI has accelerated the adoption of robots, with them now employed in warehouses, medical environments, and homes. As both humanoid and non-humanoid models are released into the world, questions linger not just over their scalability and accuracy, but how much of the human experience they will replace. Are they worth the investment, or are they still nascent? Will they displace our workforces or stand alongside them? And with global birth rates declining, are they an urgent necessity for our understaffed future?

Hi, robot

Manufacturing is revolutionising production with interconnected systems and automation, but novel innovations yield new challenges. Data security, integration complexities, and workforce adaptation hinder widespread adoption. How can industries overcome these hurdles and leverage AI and robotics to achieve optimised, efficient, and resilient manufacturing processes for the future?

Industry 4.0

Space has never been closer as rockets, satellites, and mining vessels reach the stars with increasing frequency, but stories of success in spacetech are as common as those of failure. While it seems we’re one step closer to interstellar travel each day, we’re also one great leap away from reaching our closest celestial bodies. What makes spacefaring technology tick? And what does the industry need to get right before we get off Earth?

The final frontier

How we move from A to B is changing as EVs flood our streets and driverless cars ferry passengers in cities selected from waiting lists. As autotech becomes more sophisticated, so too does its consumer trend, with subscription models and servitisation creeping into the mobility experience. What does it mean for users and manufacturers when your phone and your car have never been more alike, and what will the next generation of autotech look like as a result?
