We opened our fourth office in Lisbon in six years yesterday. It was an honour to host former European Commissioner for Innovation & current Mayor of Lisbon Carlos @Moedas. We now have more than 90 full time staff in Portugal & will pass 100 soon. The office is beautiful ❤️

It’s been a dream many years in the making that @WebSummit’s software would eventually power the world’s largest & best events like @CES
There’s been many nerds involved along the way, from our first engineers like @tonyennis & @Whelton, to our🥇adult engineer @jdfitzgerald 😝

Hope everyone is enjoying @CES online or in-person in Vegas. Congrats to the more than 50 engineers, designers, PMs & more at @WebSummit who are behind the online conference software, as well as the mobile app for those attending in person #CES2022

Good evening!
It’s that time of year again where I round up some things I thought were touching, lovely, silly or gas this year. God knows we could all do with the distraction right now 🤪🤪🤪
So sit back, relax and dive in. Hope you enjoy 💕

For the first time ever @WebSummit’s software (version 22.0.2) will help run someone else’s in-person event
It’s a big week for our little company as @CES mobile app has gone live
For those who can’t make it @CES online will also run on our virtual event platform launching Jan3

A little news
@WebSummit’s event software will power @CES, perhaps the world’s largest trade show, this January
More than 200,000 attendees & all exhibitors will rely on our platform
If @WebSummit’s software can power @CES, we think it can in time power any event on the planet

the most consequential figures in the tech world are half guys like steve jobs and bill gates and half some guy named ronald who maintains a unix tool called 'runk' which stands for Ronald's Universal Number Kounter and handles all math for every machine on earth

Endless finger-wagging on the radio about young people drinking outdoors. They have been responsible over the last 15 months. They are the ones paying huge rents to live in homes with no gardens while people over 40 screw about not tackling the housing crisis.

1/ I met @paddycosgrave in Ethiopia years ago. We became fast friends and I’ve watched him build a platform for the most interesting ideas, companies, and people in the world to come together - powered by software and unparalleled execution.
I worried Covid would wipe @WebSummit out
But the team achieved something extraordinary, creating beautiful software & gathering so many amazing people together
In the last few hours David Beckham, Nicole Kidman, Jeremy Lin & Lily Collins all joined us online for @CollisionHQ
