WE SELECT EXCLUSIVE VENUES
FOR A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE

E-Commerce Connect stands out for always taking place in unique and memorable locations. Over past editions, we have brought the community together in truly extraordinary settings — from landmark hotels in Lisbon, Cascais, and Sintra, to an exclusive experience aboard a magnificent boat on the Tagus River.

In 2026, we raise the bar once again.

The new edition of E-Commerce Connect Iberia will take place in Porto, at Hotel Solverde Spa & Wellness Center — a luxury seaside venue known for its sophisticated atmosphere, tranquility, and privileged views over the Atlantic Ocean.

OUR FOCUS IS ON QUALITY.
NOT QUANTITY.
