News Summary

The Web Summit in Lisbon, a major technology business conference attracting investors, startups, and high-profile speakers, is facing logistical issues due to a shortage of private jet slots at Lisbon Airport. This has forced some private jets to seek runway space at more distant airports, such as Badajoz in Spain. The conference, which features notable figures like the CEO of Qualcomm and the President of Microsoft, has seen an increase in attendees and a rising trend in private jet usage, contributing to the airport’s capacity challenges.
