Web Summit 2017, and why we will be back
Lisbon in November: business, technology, fashion, music and politics in one place. What we took away from Web Summit and the first Savvy Awards.
The light was on the seemingly obvious topics these days: IoT/ AI, e-health, cyber-security, mobility, resilient growth, new work, machine learning, adoption of the new technological cycles for corporates and access to new technologies for everyone in the world. All of that is in our hands and we have to deal with it.
The stages were full of scary visions, statements and discussions appealing to our humanity and the way we shape our future.
And by the way: “Lisaboa” is the best choice for a late autumn summit. Beneath the meetings, discussions and presentations giving you the chance to make a short trip to Costa Caparica or Praia do Guincho, one of the finest beaches of this region, that combines intense surfing with dramatic scenery.
