Last day for Web Summit

The Web Summit has its final day in the RDS in Dublin today before it moves to Lisbon next year.

Paddy Cosgrave's event continued to cause controversy this week with allegations of patchy wifi, expensive food and a late invitation for the Taoiseach.

However, Game of Thrones actor Liam Cunningham told the Irish Government they should "get down on their knees" to beg the Web Summit to come back here.

He also said losing the event to Lisbon was "an embarrassment" that "shouldn’t have happened".

“I think it’s a disgrace that something this clever and wonderful has been lost by people who probably don’t know how to turn on a mobile phone,” he said.
