Some of our best networking happens away from the conference floor – at Night Summit. It’s a series of parties and receptions for Web Summit attendees in Lisbon’s most exciting venues. Partnering with Night Summit places your brand right at the centre of these parties. It gives you the chance to continue conversations from the conference floor and engage with attendees in a more relaxed, informal setting. Logistics of general attendee Night Summit are managed with your partner success manager. Check out some of last year’s Night Summit’s highlights. 

Venue options:

• You will collaborate with your partner success manager to select the right venue to suit the party needs.

Bar tab:

• If you’d like to provide a free drink to the party attendees at your own cost it can be arranged through your partner success manager.
• A drinks menu selection will be shared with you for review.
• Drink tokens may be provided by the event organiser where required.

Photography:

• Web Summit’s official photographer will be scheduled to shoot at each night event.

Entertainment:

• Entertainment – DJs, bands, for example – may be organised through your partner success manager.

Ticket package:

• Please ensure anyone you would like to attend the Night Summit party is assigned an event ticket. Deadline to complete information on all your allocated tickets is Friday, October 25. 

Partner comms form:

Additional branding and merchandise:

Attendee perks:

• Create an exclusive offer (free trial, discounted access, for example) of your product or service for  Web Summit attendees, allowing you to generate leads before, during and after the event. See the attendee perks section for more information.

• To familiarise yourself with the venue, we suggest completing a walkthrough in advance with our team. Please confirm a time with your partner success manager.
• To further promote your night event, consider running a competition or social media giveaway. This creates a fun atmosphere for attendees while also providing strategic value for the partner.
• To make the most of your night event, ensure your staff are well briefed on your objectives and your audience.
• We suggest bringing a strong networking team with you to engage with the attendees, but be mindful that each venue has a capacity limit.
• To create a night our attendees will remember, think big when planning your activation and allow the budget, staffing and creativity to realise your vision.
• A free drink or bar tab is always greatly appreciated by the attendees!
