Why

After the Global Summit, a handful of us will depart for a two-day retreat in Sintra, a Unesco World Heritage site not too far away from Lisbon, with bizarre and beautiful palaces full of mystery. The Retreat will be a time to decompress from the Summit, discover Portugal’s countryside charms, and spend quality time with a smaller, more intimate group.

What

During the two days retreat participants will have the possibility to participate in a Treasure Hunt, attend surfing classes, yoga sessions and other interesting activities that will help them to decompress from the Summit.

When

- Departure from Lisbon on Monday, January 23 at 10am
- Tuesday, January 24
- Departure from Sintra on Wednesday, January 25 at 10am

Where

Owing to its 19th century Romantic architecture and landscapes, Sintra is one of the most beautiful cities in Portugal and one of the most visited small cities in Europe.
The road to Sintra: a route so winding it brings you to a crawl, gushing greenery, and quaint-yet-elegant Portuguese houses combined form an enchanting welcome. According to a legend, a creature, half-man, half-fish, lives here…

Join us at Sintra for a two-day retreat to remember. You can book the retreat when buying the Summit ticket, or separately. Register for the retreat here.

Newsletter

Yes, you get a lot of newsletters already. But ours is awesome and we will never spam you.
