(Our Tuesday edition sold out in 24h just within our network & past attendees, before we could even release to the public, so we've opened a 2nd dinner!)🧠 Guaranteed to be the only Web Summit event you actually remember in 5 years (and the only people you remember connecting with)
This is Airplane Mode Lisbon: The Founders Edition.
Clarity. Direction. Connection.
After the success of our pilot dinner last year and an amazing night full of the type of connections you simply cannot find at Web Summit, we are bringing back Airplane Mode Lisbon for the 2nd year in a row.
Like so many others, we've been to Web Summit too many times, always leaving feeling scattered from hundreds of talks & conversations, but few leads and even fewer connections.
That's why we decided to adapt our locally famous vintage dinner series for Web Summit, to bring founders a night unlike any they can find in Lisbon, with connections that last longer than a cocktail.This dinner format has been specifically crafted for startup founders at the pre-seed, seed, and Series A level, focused on not only providing a truly unique Web Summit week experience, but connections that will move the needle and deliver actionable insights each founder can take back into their company for 2027 and beyond. Join us with some amazing founders, trading in your smartphones & ping pong schedules for a night that promises to bring the complete opposite of any other Web Summit experience, and insights you can take back into your leadership style to get the best out of each member of your team.
About Airplane Mode Lisbon
Airplane Mode Lisbon was founded in 2025 by Cam Roda, a former startup A-player who spent the last 10 years living around the world, immersing deeply in different cultures and learning how people communicate & connect across the globe.
Taking these lessons from so many cultures & socioeconomic backgrounds, Airplane Mode Lisbon set out to become the first vintage, no-phone dinner series in the city, trading your smartphone for a glass of wine and a night of unique mixers inspired from the same methods Cam learned in cultures around the world.
Cam operates not only as the facilitator for the night, but also as the chef, cooking you a delicious home-cooked meal, from recipes he's been taught along the way.
Airplane Mode Lisbon promises 4 things:
You will leave feeling like you've known everyone for years
The conversations & topics always shift perspectives
A meal that feels like home, no matter where you're from
No 2 dinners are ever the same
