Lisbon is world-renowned as the launch point of Portuguese expeditions during the Age of Discovery and as the celebrated “City of Seven Hills”: São Jorge, São Vicente, São Roque, Santo André, Santa Catarina, Chagas, and Sant’Ana.

Its steep, cobbled streets adorned with tiled, the smell of pastéis de nata, the iconic trams, and the nostalgic notes of fado in neighbourhoods like Alfama and Mouraria arouse vanished eras and traditions still felt in the city today.

Between the charm of the Praça do Comércio and the history of Belém lies the modernity of Parque das Nações. This space merges contemporary architecture, urban art, and sweeping views of the Tagus River. This district, developed for Expo 98, symbolises the Lisbon of the future and its capacity to host top-tier international events.

This makes Lisbon the perfect venue for the Web Summit Lisbon 2024, an event where innovation and technology take centre stage. This year, Mobbeel will showcase the latest advancements in biometrics and identity fraud prevention.
