Web Summit 2019
Web Summit is one of the largest tech events in the world. In 2019, the conference brought more than 70,000 attendees from over 170 countries to the heart of Lisbon.
PitchBook took over the Investor Lounge, an exclusive space for the investors attending the conference. With nearly 5,000 square feet to fill, we made it our mission to create a networking haven and unforgettable brand experience.
The investor lounge
Our first priority was to provide ample seating for meetings. Our second priority was to showcase the PitchBook brand and value of data in dealmaking.
Web Summit Factbook
With a list of the investors attending the conference, we were able to analyze and understand the influence of investors at the conference. We used this data to create the Web Summit FactBook, a short report that illustrated PitchBook’s data as told through the work of attendees.
We distributed the FactBook via email before the conference. We also offered printed versions in the lounge—almost all copies were gone by the end of day one.

Coffee bar & cocktails
All of the refreshments were a hit! Coffee for a boost throughout the day. Cocktails for happy hour. The complementary coffee bar could whip up anything the attendees ask for. While they waited for their coffee, we stocked the bar with our reports for them to take if interested.
Giveaways & Interactive touch points
GIPHY photo booth
To capture moments at the conference, we planted a GIPHY photo booth for guests. Leveraging PitchBook’s data, we created a custom-made wrap for the booth that showcased the company’s funding history.
Booklet and Moleskine notebook
The Moleskine notebooks were a popular giveaway. We opted to personalized them onsite for the attendees, too. Accompanying the Moleskine was a small booklet filled with information and data on all of the activities we planned for the conference. The booklet also featured several blank pages for attendees to take notes—so they didn’t have to mark up their new notebook.
