PSG Labs Winner at Web Summit Qatar

Won first place in the PSG Labs Pitch Competition at Web Summit Qatar, earning a Golden Ticket.

PLAYBACK has won first place in the Paris Saint-Germain Lab Pitch Competition at Web Summit Qatar 2026, earning a Golden Ticket to the next PSG Labs Selection Day.

The competition saw 20 startups pitch to decision-makers from PSG Labs and Qatar Sports Investments across three days at the QSI booth in Doha. PLAYBACK was announced as the winner live on stage.

PSG Labs is Paris Saint-Germain's global innovation accelerator, designed to support startups building transformative solutions across fan experience, stadium innovation, and athlete performance. The Golden Ticket grants PLAYBACK direct access to the next Selection Day, bypassing the standard application process.

PLAYBACK stood out because it isn't pitching hypothetical technology. The platform is already live in multiple countries, powering thousands of youth players each week through real partnerships and a scalable B2B2C model.

Next stop: Paris.
