Venue

ISEG

The workshop takes place at the ISEG – Lisbon School of Economics and Management. The main address is Rua do Quelhas, 6, 1200-781 Lisbon. All rooms are located in the Quelhas 6 building, also known as the Convento das Inglesinhas, a 17th century building overlooking the rest of the campus [lat. N38o42’35.734”, long. W9o09’27.184”].

Participants without mobility problems are advised to use the main entrance at Rua das Francesinhas [lat. N38o42’37.588”, long. W9o09’17.129”], by the Francesinhas 2 building, and climb the outdoor stairs, on the left-hand side, to Quelhas 6. Participants with mobility problems may use either the car-park entrance at Rua Miguel Lupi [lat. N38o42’39.229”, long. W9o09’21.672”] or the one at Rua do Quelhas [lat. N38o42’34.607”, long. W9o09’20.671”].

Founded in 1911, ISEG is a research-oriented institution, whose mission is to instruct capable business and economics students and to train the most skilled managers and mathematicians, providing each with cutting edge knowledge in the corresponding areas of interest. ISEG is one of the top prestigious and experienced business and economics schools based in Portugal, one of the three top-ranked providers in these fields of education at undergraduate, graduate and executive training levels.

ISEG distinguishes itself from its competition through a clear focus on top quality research and teaching, and through an intense relationship with the most important public and private Portuguese Institutions and Corporations as well as with the development of long-term relationships between ISEG and its alumni. Its facilities were totally renovated recently providing a top-quality and stimulating academic environment to the personal and professional development of future managers and economists.

ISEG is located in the city centre just next to the Portuguese Parliament and facing the Tejo river. It is also in walking distance of The National Museum of Ancient Art, the bearer of the most important collection of arts in Portugal.

Lisbon


How to get from the Airport to the City

Lisbon’s main airport is 10 km (6 mi) from the conference venue at ISEG - Lisbon School of Economics & Management, Universidade de Lisboa.

You may take the Metro (subway). The Airport station is on the red line, taking you to Saldanha station in just 15 minutes and to the city center Baixa-Chiado station (a change of line is needed) in about 25 minutes. You can buy the one-way ticket for 1.50 euros or the daily pass for 6 euros, allowing you to use the Metro, buses, trams, funiculars, elevator and trains). Both types of ticket are issued on rechargeable cards so do not throw them away.

The Metro stations closest to ISEG are either Rato (yellow line) or Cais do Sodré (green line). Then, you may prefer a nice 20 minute walk or to catch a bus. At Rato you have either 706 (heading towards Cais do Sodré) or 727 and at Cais do Sodré you have 706 (heading towards Est. Sta. Apolónia). In any case, you should leave the bus at the Assembleia da República (the Parliament) stop.

Alternatively, you may get a taxi into the city center. The journey takes about 20 minutes. All of the taxis have digital meters and must run them. The cost of getting from the airport to the (city center) is about 15 – 20 euros daytime. Most taxis do not accept credit cards. It is not necessary to tip taxi drivers. You can queue for taxis outside the arrivals exit. Transportation with Uber, Bolt and Free Now are also available in the city.

The Santos train station, on the Lisbon-Cascais suburban line, is only a 10 minute walking away from ISEG. The 706 bus also stops there on its way from Cais do Sodré to Assembleia da República.

Tips on Travel

Visa: Non EU citizens and citizens from countries without VISA waive must require a VISA to come to Lisbon.

Money: The currency used in Portugal is Euro. Portugal has an extensive network of ATM machines and most restaurants, hotels, shops and museums accept credit cards.

Electricity: The electrical current in Portugal is 220 volts, 50 cycles alternating current (AC); wall outlets take Continental-type plugs round prongs.

Accommodation

Participants are responsible for their travel and accommodation arrangements. The enrollment fee does not cover accommodation. Please make your reservations as soon as possible. A complete list of hotels can be found at Lisbon Official Tourism Website.

Besides a vast array of opportunities on AirBnB, and a large number of hostels, the following is a list of hotels conference participants have used in the past. The closest areas to the conference site are Santos, Estrela, Lapa, Príncipe Real, Chiado, Bairro Alto, and Cais do Sodré.

Lisbon is the capital and largest city of Portugal. It is also the seat of the district of Lisbon and capital of the Lisbon region. Its municipality has a population of 564,477 in 84.8 km2, while the Lisbon Metropolitan Area in total has around 2.8 million inhabitants. Due to its economic output, standard of living, and market size, the Grande Lisboa (Greater Lisbon) subregion is considered the second most important financial and economic center of the Iberian Peninsula. The Lisbon region is the wealthiest region in Portugal and it is well above the European Union’s GDP per capita average – it produces 45% of the Portuguese GDP. It is also the political center of the country, as seat of government and residence of the Head of State.

Lisbon was under Roman rule from 205 BC, when it was already a 1000 year old town. Julius Caesar made it a municipium called Felicitas Julia, adding to the name Olissipo. Ruled by a series of Germanic tribes from the 5th century, it was captured by Moors in the 8th century. In 1147, the Crusaders under Afonso Henriques reconquered the city for the Christians and since then it has been a major political, economic and cultural center of Portugal. Unlike most capital cities, Lisbon’s status as the capital of Portugal has never been granted or confirmed officially – by statute or in written form. Its position as the capital has formed through constitutional convention, making its position as de facto capital a part of the Constitution of Portugal.

Lisbon hosts two agencies of the European Union, namely, the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) and the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA). The Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP), is also headquartered in Lisbon.

The municipal holiday is June 13, St. Anthony’s Day.
