What to expect
- Keynotes + tracks across product, AI, startups, and policy
- Side events all over town (the real Lisbon experience)
- A great excuse to mix work trips with design-forward travel
Planning tips
- Stay near a Red Line metro stop—Parque das Nações is easy if you plan transit.
- Bring comfortable shoes; even with shuttles, you’ll walk a lot inside the venue.
- Book dinner reservations early—Lisbon gets busy with attendees.
Build a day around it
- 2–3 hours: arrive early, event, short neighborhood loop.
- Full day: one walk/attraction + event + calm dinner.
- Rainy backup: keep one indoor stop in mind.
Before you go
- Confirm details — check the official link for last-minute changes.
- Arrive with buffer — 15–30 minutes early makes everything calmer.
- Weather plan — one indoor warm stop in case the day turns.
