Global technology conference series with 140,000+ annual attendees across five continents
Web Summit operates a multi-city event portfolio (Lisbon, Doha, Rio de Janeiro, Vancouver, and others) that has scaled from 150 attendees in 2009 to over 140,000 annually. The hiring mix is heavily sales-skewed (13 of 23 open roles) with concurrent pushes on ops, marketing, and GTM strategy—reflecting a business in active geographic expansion. Active projects center on group ticket sales, partner acquisition, and travel logistics, while pain points cluster around attendee retention, partner sourcing, and operational efficiency.
Web Summit is a Dublin-based event organizer that runs a global series of technology conferences across Europe, North America, South America, Asia, and the Middle East. The company gathers technologists, founders, corporate decision-makers, and investors for in-person networking and knowledge exchange. With over 340 employees distributed across Dublin headquarters and regional offices in Portugal, Canada, Qatar, Brazil, and other locations, Web Summit combines event production (stages, experiences, logistics) with commercial operations (ticketing, sponsorship, partnership management). The organization uses Salesforce and HubSpot for CRM and funnel management, Python and analytics tools (Matomo, Tableau) for data on attendance and engagement, and Zapier and Pipedream for workflow automation across distributed teams.
