Yorkseed Executive Lunch
This event is part of Yorkseed Passport Series: Web Summit Lisbon 2026 Edition
Yorkseed Passport Series | Executive Lunch
During Web Summit week, calendars quickly fill with meetings, receptions, and side events.
Yorkseed’s Executive Lunch offers something different.
A curated, intimate lunch bringing together founders, executives, investors, fund managers, family offices, corporate leaders, and ecosystem builders from around the world.
Join guest from Bolt, Mossy Ventures, and other companies for meaningful conversations, new connections, and opportunities that can lead to partnerships, investment, capital, and international growth.
Whether you are raising or deploying capital, exploring partnerships, expanding into new markets, or looking to meet the right people during the week, this is a chance to step away from the conference floor and spend time with a carefully selected group in a more personal setting.
Yorkseed Connection Intelligence
Don’t leave networking to chance.
Every confirmed guest will receive personalized Yorkseed Connection Intelligence, highlighting the top 3 people at the lunch table they should meet.
Matches are selected based on each guest’s background, goals, interests, and potential areas of mutual value, helping you arrive with a clearer understanding of who to meet and why.
Please note: Same-day registrations may not receive personalized Connection Intelligence matches due to the research and preparation required. However, all confirmed guests will still take part in the seated introductions and have the opportunity to connect with attendees throughout the lunch.

Since 2023, Yorkseed has been connecting innovators across 50+ global hubs, helping founders and emerging fund managers successfully raise from VCs, LPs, and family offices through our curated gatherings and private introductions.
At Web Summit Lisbon last year, one emerging fund closed a deal with an LP, and multiple founders received funding directly through Yorkseed Passport events. We’ve also seen companies launched, documentaries produced, and partnerships formed — all starting from Yorkseed connections. ✨
This year, as we return to Web Summit Lisbon 2026, we’re actively looking for sponsors and partners who want to engage with a highly curated audience of global founders, investors, and innovators.
Partnering with Yorkseed is a unique opportunity to showcase your brand during one of the world’s largest tech gatherings — while supporting meaningful conversations, connections, and deal flow across the venture ecosystem.
