Web Summit Qatar returns to Doha from 31 January to 3 February 2027 for its fourth edition. The organisers say the event draws more than 30,000 founders, investors and members of the international media, which makes it one of the region's most significant meeting points for technology and capital.
The summit is organised by Web Summit together with Qatar's Permanent Web Summit Organising Committee, which is chaired by the Director of the Government Communications Office. The Qatar Investment Authority and Invest Qatar are among the state bodies involved, and the summit forms part of Qatar's push to attract international start-ups, venture capital and corporate partners as it diversifies its economy.
Local media report that more than 70 global partners have already signed up for the 2027 edition, with trade delegations expected from countries including the Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, Türkiye and Bahrain. For fintech founders, venture investors and corporate innovation teams, the summit offers dedicated investor programmes and access to a fast-growing Gulf funding ecosystem.
