Bybit announces partnership with Web Summit 2026
Cryptocurrency exchange Bybit has announced its participation as an official partner of Web Summit 2026, scheduled for November 9–12 in Lisbon, Portugal. The company will engage through its global leadership and its European division, Bybit EU, which is serving as a Platinum Sponsor.
Bybit EU is currently expanding its regulated services within the European Economic Area following authorizations from Austria’s Financial Market Authority (FMA). In May 2025, Bybit EU GmbH was authorized as a crypto-asset service provider under the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR), and in August 2026, Bybit Payments GmbH obtained an Electronic Money Institution (EMI) license.
During the conference, Bybit EU Co-CEO Georg Harer is set to discuss European strategy, while Global CTO Rockman Zhang will participate in discussions regarding the integration of artificial intelligence within financial infrastructure and the potential of autonomous AI agents in financial markets.
