How to Web is Eastern Europe's leading startup and technology conference, held every October in Bucharest. More than 3,000 entrepreneurs, investors, and technology professionals from over 40 countries are expected, with confirmed speakers from OpenAI, Meta, Google, and Stripe. The three day programme runs across multiple stages with matchmaking and an expo floor, plus side events across the city each evening. The 2026 theme asks what you would build when you can build anything, leaning heavily into AI driven product work.
