Event Summary

Lisbon: our Portuguese debut and furthest leap from our Swedish roots. 360 guests joined us for two sun-filled days, where speakers brought our theme “WHERE DREAMS GO TO DIE” to life – proving that magic happens outside our comfort zones.

Event Theme

Where dreams go to die

Embracing the idea that “A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there,” this theme challenges our presenters to interpret how comfort often leads to complacency, stifling creativity and ambition. Throughout the event, presenters will share their unique takes on breaking free from routine, embracing uncertainty, and pursuing transformative change.

Line-Up

We offer two formats for presenters: 45-minute keynote presentation and 10-minute WUNX presentations. Read below how it’s all broken down in Lisbon.
