About Us

Chatbot Summit is the world’s leading Chatbot event series with a mission to help the players of this newly formed economy grow faster, together. So far we've held 6 international conferences bringing together over 5,000 attendees from over 75 countries with over 200 exhibitors.

Chatbot Summit was founded in 2016 by Yoav Barel, an Israeli tech entrepreneur, who's held senior product and strategy positions at Sun Microsystems, Oracle, and LivePerson. Yoav has been pioneering digital experience solutions from the early days of Mobile Java, to Apps, and now Bots. Yoav, like many others, is convinced that conversational user experiences powered by artificial intelligence (AKA Chatbots) are going to take the realm from Apps to dominate the digital experience market for the years to come.
