This global initiative expects to bring together more than 50,000 participants from over 150 countries in the Portuguese capital, i.e. more than 20,000 companies, 7,000 CEOs and 2000 journalists from around the world.<\/p>\n Paddy Cosgrave, CEO of Web Summit, is quite enthusiastic about the 2016 Surf Summit, stating that “it will be an amazing experience for all the participants, by joining the best of technology and adventure sports in two days of networking in a world-class place. It is the ideal preparation for the Web Summit itself.”<\/p>\n With surf being the main sport in Ericeira, the speakers and mentors of the event would have to be also of world-class. Andrew Cotton, a famous surfer with several nominations at the Billabong XXL, and Anastasia Ashley, American professional surfer and former female champion in the Pipeline Pro will be among the attendants.<\/p>\n Besides surf and lectures, there will be several other activities available to the participants, such as stand up paddle, yoga in Ribeira D’Ilhas or mountain biking in the Lizandro cliffs. For the toughest, the party will continue into the night with an after party in one of the oldest discos in Portugal, the Ouri\u00e7o.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Event anticipates the Web Summit, gathering executives of the tech world from every country to do some outside activities and networking in Ericeira’s World Surfing Reserve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":15042,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19570","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-waves"],"yoast_head":"\n
