In November, Lineo Engineering exhibited at Web Summit within the Romanian Pavilion. The event was well organized, highly attended, and visible throughout Lisbon.
What We Presented
Lineo Engineering provides end-to-end product development, covering:
Industrial Design & Mechanical Engineering
Hardware & Electronics Engineering
Firmware Development
Camera and Sensor Integration
Prototyping and Pre-production Engineering
Contract Manufacturing

Most discussions at our booth came from people genuinely interested in hardware. They were engaged with the products we showcased and focused on the technical aspects — the solutions we implemented, the innovations introduced in recent projects, the patents involved, and the execution timelines. The questions were concrete and centered on how we build and deliver.
Observations
A broad mix of participants across ages and backgrounds.
Solid national stands — though the event could have accommodated even more country-level representation.
Strong presence of women in tech and many early-stage companies.
It was remarkable how many Romanian professionals we met whom we had never crossed paths with at home. These interactions were among the most valuable because they opened opportunities for relevant collaborations. Since Lineo operates for global clients out of Romania, connecting with more Romanian talent and founders added real strategic value.
Market Balance
The environment was extremely dynamic, but often more idea-driven than evidence-driven. Many teams talked about possibilities rather than results, which made it harder to identify what is moving forward versus what is still conceptual. In this context, the real challenge is not the lack of innovation, but the ability to navigate the volume of perspectives and maintain clarity around what is truly actionable.
Beyond the dominant AI presence, several other themes stood out. Humanoid robots generated steady interest, as did drone technologies — both operational systems and drone-interception solutions. Environmental innovation was also strongly represented, with a high number of seaweed-based and sustainability-oriented concepts.
There was also a visible wave of solutions positioned around mental health support digital tools complementing psychotherapy, behavioral assistants, and various companion-type applications aimed at monitoring or improving daily routines.
Web Summit Numbers
70,000+ attendees
2,600+ start-ups
900+ investors
