The Congress opens on the 22nd September with a Welcome dinner for all Congress participants at one of Lisbon’s best restaurants: the Sky Bar, at the Tivoli Avenida Hotel, with amazing views over the city.

For those wishing to play golf, we are hosting an open-invitation tournament (maximum 25 people) at Oitavos Dunes golf course earlier in the day.

On the second day there is the Business programme and a separate Partner programme that includes a tour of the fabulous city of Lisbon.
