We are still buzzing from these wonderful 2,5 days we spent in Lisbon, all the inspiring talks and the views over Carcavelos beach and the picturesque town of Cascais.


About the Programme
During 2,5 days we got together in Lisbon and were guided by world-class thought leaders, futurists and sustainable innovators, through the latest approaches, tendencies and innovations in Ocean Economy, Sustainable Cities, New Mobility and Regenerative Economy.
Through immersive workshops, engaging talks & dynamic activities, sustainability leaders came together in an exciting environment to learn and connect with each other as well as our faculty and speakers.
Venue: Nova SBE
Located in Cascais, a traditional and charming Portuguese fishing town at the Lisbon coastline, Nova School of Business Economics is a leading business school in Portugal and one of the best business schools in the world.
The Carcavelos Campus combines academic quality with the lifestyle that Portugal – especially the Lisbon and Cascais region – has to offer: safe, cozy, near the sea, and accessible, in a country with history and culture. The campus gazes over the Carcavelos beach, with an area of more than 75,061 m2, low buildings and large open green spaces open to the community.
We closed our Programme with an aperitivo at Porsche Design Studio and a dinner with sea-view at the stunning venue Casa de Santa Maria.
