All About Web Summit 2022-The World's Premier Tech Conference

This is "where the future goes to be born"

WHAT A WEEK! Mission Impact was invited to Web Summit 2022 in Lisbon, and we'd love to tell you how it went.

Web Summit is an event held in many destinations across the world, bringing together tens of thousands of people and companies that are redefining the tech industry. As The Atlantic puts it, it is "where the future goes to be born." Web Summit is where founders, CEOs, policy-makers, and heads of state gather to connect and discuss the future of tech.
