Opening Night was emotional. Had to hold back tears. It’s good to be back.
To work with truly extraordinary people doing what I love is a privilege.
Finally, I’ve never seen opening night so packed. Tomorrow we open the doors to the largest group of startups we’ve ever had ❤️🙏

"Right now there are 99 very smart people trying to make it (AI) better and one very smart person trying to figure out how to stop is taking over." - @geoffreyhinton @WebSummit
Congrats to Nobel Prize winner, Godfather Hinton!
Is AI getting out of control?
So says Geoffrey Hinton, the Godfather of AI, who recently won a Nobel Prize for his work in artificial intelligence.
Geoffrey sat down with us in Toronto this year to discuss where he thinks AI is going.

Last night @WebSummit hosted three simultaneous Women in Tech dinners in Dublin, Lisbon and London. We invited 73 incredible women leaders to celebrate, and spark ideas about what we believe needs to happen to continue the upward trajectory for women in tech and business generally.
We're also publishing a report on Women in Tech, details below.
We regularly host dinners around the world, connecting inspiring women founders, investors, leaders and more. If you'd ever like to join, or know of someone we should invite, leave a comment or tag someone in a comment.

The @WebSummit has just released a disconcerting report on #WomenInTech. Bottom line is while "more than 1000 women-founded startups are attending Lisbon Summit, more than ever before, women in tech remain underpaid, underrepresented and underfunded." docsend.com/view/a468z5gapbe…

Delighted we're staying in Canada and moving to the West Coasssttt 🌊⛰️🍁 #WebSummitVancouver
🚨 Web Summit Vancouver 🚨
Last month I flew to Vancouver to meet Mayor Ken Sim & the Vancouver tech community. I was blown away by Vancouver’s beauty and its flourishing tech scene.
Today we’re announcing our first Web Summit in North America, Web Summit Vancouver. We’re going to take over the city in May 2025. We can’t wait!
That means next week will be our final Collision and our final year in Toronto. After an amazing 5 years, we’re welcoming the largest number of startups ever to Toronto next week, and by far the largest number of female founded startups. It’s going to fun this one last time.
After that it’s all eyes on Vancouver for May 2025. We simply can’t wait. See you on the West Coast for Web Summit Vancouver in 2025.

Shy comms guy #websummitrio
There is someone at #WebSummitRio falsely claiming to be part of our team. Please do not engage. Still funny though.

I'm stuck at home missing my first ever @WebSummit event (blame my weak, broken ankle :)
Still feeling mad energy from @WebSummitRio from afar 🇧🇷🥁
Best of luck to the most talented team in the biz and another shout out to the hundreds of women founders at this year's event🙋♀️
