He continued, "We are excited to welcome innovators, investors and tech enthusiasts from around the world to this landmark event. Qatar’s business-friendly environment, cutting-edge infrastructure and exceptional quality of life create the perfect setting for creativity and bold ideas to thrive.”

Web Summit Qatar 2025 boasts an exceptional speaker line-up, featuring Alexis Ohanian, Founder and General Partner at Seven Seven Six and Co-founder of Reddit; Eduardo Saverin, Co-founder of Facebook and B Capital; and Laura Chambers, CEO of Mozilla Corporation. By hosting Web Summit as part of a five-year partnership, Qatar continues to strengthen its position as a global hub for innovation.

The summit is a key driver in attracting foreign investment, driving tourism growth and strengthening the State’s business environment, supporting Qatar’s National Vision 2030’s goals of economic diversification and global leadership in innovation.

Qatar’s inaugural Web Summit set several impressive records last year, including the largest startup participation in an inaugural edition, with 1,100 startups participating and notable representation from Africa.

This year’s edition is expected to surpass those achievements, further solidifying Qatar’s status as a global innovation hub.
