CONFERENCE

How about the people?

How about transforming the effort of more than 170 people into one shared journey for over 1,200 participants?

How about starting with the story instead of the structure?

How about creating only what you would want to experience yourself?

How about meeting each other at eye level?

How about putting on stage only the people who truly fit the story?

How about choosing on stage dialogue instead of monologue?

How about using only movement instead of static staging?

How about implementing art and artists as part of identity?

And how about moving forward instead of repeating what once worked?

How about the space?

How about using remarkable settings like Super Bock Arena and Alfândega instead of a standard congress hall?

How about making the venue a main player of the experience and part of the message?

How about using the history of Porto as the foundation for the experience?

How about putting a 35-meter runway stage in the historic hall of Alfândega?

How about creating hybrid settings instead of separated worlds?

How about creating spaces people can walk through, explore, and meet in?

How about creating two unique conferences that dramaturgically connect and build into one shared journey?
