Is An Algorithm Silencing Progressive Voices? That And More From The Floor Of Web Summit Lisbon

Recording on Tuesday (Day One) of Web Summit 2025, David Savage talks to leaders about what truly matters on the ground.

Louise Thomas shares her successful fundraising round, confirming AI and health tech are capturing investor attention. Janine Luk and Katerina Chantzi reveal how they navigate the overwhelming conference strategically, prioritizing quality over quantity.

The conversation turns serious as they discuss whether algorithms are actively suppressing DNI and Women in Tech posts, and what builders must do to bring the human element back to technology.
