This event is part of Yorkseed Passport Series: Web Summit Lisbon 2026 Edition
Two Lisbon locations are currently under consideration. The final venue will be selected and announced closer to Web Summit.
Yorkseed Passport Series | Capital Lunch
Fundraising is often discussed in crowded conference halls, rushed coffee meetings, and packed networking events.
The Capital Lunch creates space for a different kind of conversation.
Bringing together a curated group of founders, venture capitalists, angel investors, emerging fund managers, and venture ecosystem leaders, this lunch is designed for meaningful discussions, relationship building, and long-term connections within the venture ecosystem.
Whether you are actively raising capital, deploying capital, exploring co-investment opportunities, or building relationships for future opportunities, The Capital Lunch offers a more intentional environment to connect with peers during Web Summit week.
This is not a pitch event.
This is not a networking mixer.
