Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web, will speak at the SBC Summit 2024 as part of a fireside discussion on September 24th.

The fireside discussion with Sir Tim, focusing on how his vision of a globally connected network of computers has revolutionised the way we share information, is set for the Super Stage at Feira Internacional de Lisboa’s MEO Arena — one of the largest indoor arenas in Europe — on September 24 from 11:45 to 12:30. There are also an expected 25,000 attendees to be attending with 600 global brands showcasing products.

Rasmus Sojmark, CEO & founder of SBC, said: “Our events have always been about exploring what lies ahead, beyond the current landscape. As event organisers, our goal is not only to provide attendees with access to products and services and facilitate networking but also to educate and inspire innovation, pushing their offerings to the next level. Sir Tim embodies this ethos perfectly, he’s a shining example of someone who recognised potential and transformed lives in unimaginable ways.”
