Doha Startup Run & Connect – by Golden Born Society

​This run takes place during Web Summit Qatar 2026 and is also open to Web Summit Qatar participants.
It is NOT an official Web Summit event or partnership, but a community-led gathering for startup people (Golden Borns!) who value action, wellbeing and real connection.

​We’re meeting at 07:00 AM at Al Dafna Park, at the exact location pinned on the map.

​From there, we’ll move together towards the seaside and run approximately 2.5 km south along the coast, enjoying a smooth, flat route right by the water. At the scenic viewpoint, we’ll turn back and return along the same path, completing a 5 km social run at a comfortable pace.

​After the run, we’ll head to Costa Coffee nearby to cool down, connect and enjoy our morning coffees together.

​The entire experience, including the run and coffee, will take around 1.5 hours in total, leaving you with plenty of time to get ready and head back to the conference venue before the day starts.
