PTW Palace is the curated centrepiece of Portugal Tech Week — five days of high-impact programming at one of Lisbon's most prestigious venues, in the heart of the city's innovation scene.
Every November, thousands of founders, investors, researchers, creatives and policymakers gather under one extraordinary roof to share ideas, build companies, and shape what comes next.
In 2026, we're opening the stage to the community. If you have a compelling talk, workshop, panel or event idea — this is your platform.
Submit to any track — or span across multiple. The best ideas don't fit in boxes.
AI, deep tech, Web3, robotics, and the next wave of disruptive technology reshaping every industry.
Startups, venture capital, M&A, scaling strategies, and the Portuguese investment landscape.
Sustainability, social impact, policy, education, and the future of work and human progress.
Academic partnerships, applied research, deep science, and knowledge transfer from lab to market.
Design, media, gaming, music, arts, and the creative economy in the digital era.
Friday's dedicated track (13 Nov) in partnership with Portugal's Armed Forces — dual-use technology, cybersecurity and defense innovation.
