Inspiring content

Alongside tech’s leaders and innovators, we’ve gathered authors, athletes, actors and more to talk about how tech touches their industries. Our world-class speakers have taken to the stage to share their expertise through inspiring talks, interactive Q&As, and masterclasses.

With CNN referring to Web Summit as “Europe’s largest tech event”, Web Summit Qatar is set to become the Middle East’s premier event gathering top speakers from across the globe.
