Where can I find my ticket?

You can find your ticket in the Web Summit Rio mobile app by tapping the menu icon (=) in the top left corner of the screen and selecting ‘My ticket’. 

The ticket is in the form of a QR code, which you must show at registration in order to collect your accreditation and enter the event venue.

You can access your ticket via your confirmation email, which you should have received shortly after purchasing your ticket.

If you cannot locate your confirmation email, you can access your ticket dashboard here by entering the email address associated with your tickets.

How do I build my profile?

The first step to building your attendee profile is downloading the Web Summit Rio mobile app. On your first login, we will ask you for basic personal information, including:

  • Your job title
  • The company you work for
  • Where you’re based

We will also ask what topics you’re interested in, and the areas of expertise you can share with your fellow attendees.

Finally, you’ll also be asked to upload a profile picture. This will make interactions with attendees more personal. 

What information will be visible on my profile?

Your profile will display basic personal information, including your profile picture, full name, job title, the company you work for, the industry you’re in and the country you’re joining from.

Your email address will not be visible unless you choose to connect with another attendee.

Can I chat with other attendees on the app?

You can reach out to any of your fellow Web Summit Rio attendees through the mobile app. 

Starting a chat with another attendee is simple. When you find someone you’d like to connect with, click the chat icon next to the attendee’s profile picture and send a message.

The Web Summit Rio app is available for iOS and Android.

How can I build a personal event schedule?

You can build a personal event schedule for each day of Web Summit Rio using the mobile app.

You can search for talks and masterclasses on the schedule tab in the mobile app, located on the menu bar at the bottom of your screen. Once you find a talk that interests you, tap the calendar icon beside the title to add the session to your own schedule. 

You can access your schedule by tapping ’Schedule on the menu bar at the bottom of your screen and selecting ‘My schedule’.

Any meetings that you create with other attendees or companies will also be added to your personal event schedule.

How can I find the talks that interest me?

The schedule tab on the bottom menu bar of the mobile app is where you’ll find all talks taking place at Web Summit Rio. It shows the full lineup of sessions and events, listing where they’ll take place and the topics they’ll cover. You can browse talks by date, and quickly find a specific topic by using the search bar.

The Web Summit Rio app also recommends talks for you based on the interests listed on your event profile. Just tap ‘Recommended’ in the schedule menu to discover these options.

You can use the search function on the mobile app if you want to find a particular talk or masterclass. Tap ‘Explore’ on the menu at the bottom of your screen, then select ‘Sessions’ from the filters at the top of the screen. You can then use the search bar to search for talks by speaker name or keyword. 

Once you have found talks that interest you, click the calendar icon beside the title to add them to your personal event schedule.

You can also browse the Web Summit Rio schedule on our website. Simply use the filters to discover talks by content track, topic or format, or use the search box to find what you’re interested in.

How can I use the app to network with others at Web Summit Rio?

Our mobile app is your key to finding and connecting with other attendees before Web Summit Rio even begins. 

You can use the explore tab to view attendee profiles and find people you want to meet. From here, you can send private messages to attendees, plan meetings using your personal event schedule, and contact companies and speakers for a one-to-one chat.

How can I start a chat?

Starting a chat with another attendee is simple. When you’ve found someone you’d like to connect with, click the chat icon next to the attendee’s profile picture.

You can also start a new chat in the ‘Chats’ section of the app. Simply tap the ‘chat’ icon at the top right of your app screen, then tap the ‘create message’ icon to search for attendees by name or keyword.

How can I set up a meeting?

The Web Summit Rio app is your key to meeting with attendees from around the world. 

To set a meeting with another attendee, find the person you’d like to connect with by using the ‘Explore’ tab and selecting the ‘People’ filter. Once you’ve found a person to connect with, visit their attendee profile then tap ‘Request a meeting’. You will then be prompted to add a meeting title, time, location, and description.

After tapping ‘Save’, a request will be sent to the attendee. If they accept your meeting invite, the meeting will appear in your personal schedule, which you can find by tapping ‘Schedule’ on the bottom menu bar and selecting ‘My schedule’.

You can also edit the meetings you’ve scheduled – changing the name, time, location and details – by selecting the meeting from your schedule and tapping the pencil icon in the top-right corner of the screen.
