It’s a pleasure to be in Sofia at the Webit.Festival. It is a gathering of open-minded people, of people who want to shape the future, who want to change the world. And they all came together here at Webit.
Peter E. Braun
Member Board of Directors at EBAN
Webit is fantastic. It is really great and the best for me is that you can really go around and interact with people. I enjoy that very much, to talk to people from the authorities, talk to people from business, local ones, international ones, startups, students, that is really exciting.
Martin Kern
Interim Director, European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT)
We engage in conferences all around the world but I really think the level of individuals that are attending here is incredible. It’s really industry leaders from all around the world and I have not only made new friendships but definitely found some business partnerships here.
Brittany Kaiser
Business Development Director at Cambridge Analytica
This has been a great festival to attend. I had the benefit of attending and speaking at some of the world’s most interesting and exciting technology events and I can say without any reservation that this is the most hospitable tech festival.
Travis LeBlanc

Webit.Festival is really the best that Bulgaria and the region can offer to the world and I am so proud to be one of the thousands talented, young, bright people that are the Webit Family.
Rosen Plevneliev
President of Bulgaria 2012-2017
For me it’s been really inspirational to meet all kinds of people. I think they are doers, they are trying to do things to make the world a better place. What I’m doing is more on the policy side, while what they are doing is for the private sector through job creation and through digital technology to make the future better.
