During the cruise, all participants enjoyed the cocktail and dinner served buffet-style, representative of Portuguese culture and cuisine. This moment allowed them to strengthen bonds between guests, reinforcing their sense of belonging to the group and further improving existing relationships in a relaxed and laid-back way.

Esta foi a forma perfeita de terminar a Conferência, tendo sido igualmente considerada o ponto mais alto da sua estadia em Lisboa. Leia aqui o testemunho de um dos participantes.

More and better and better

It’s a fact that more and more companies from around the world have been systematically choosing Portugal, and especially Lisbon, for corporate events. Many of these events have team building objectives, strengthening bonds and, above all, networking.

Major international events have also chosen Lisbon as their stage. Web Summit 2019 recently concluded with great success. It’s Europe’s largest technology conference and this year had over 70,000 participants. In 2020, the Portuguese capital will host the world’s largest sustainable innovation event, Planetiers World Gathering, where internationally renowned personalities will be present. Also in 2020, Lisbon will host the Social Good Summit where the Sustainable Development Goals for 2030 will be discussed. These are just a few of the many examples of corporate events in Lisbon that we can proudly mention.

The Tagus River welcomes this movement that brings it life and joy. And so it gives back through memorable experiences by providing the opportunity to enjoy the tranquility of its waters and the unique views over Lisbon.

Lisbon among European cities with greater cultural dynamism

Lisbon, multifaceted and cosmopolitan, is a reference in studies conducted by international organizations. This was the case with the Cultural and Creative Cities Monitor, an online tool created by the European Commission, which considered it one of the European cities with the greatest cultural dynamism.

Events in Portugal, obviously

In fact, with eight centuries of history, 3000 hours of sunshine a year, 850 kms of the Atlantic coast, Portugal has a set of unique and highly valued attributes.

With a great diversity of landscapes within short distances, it offers remarkable experiences in leisure activities with strong historical connections to heritage, tradition, and culture. This safe European country with a mild climate is a perfect destination in all seasons.

The infrastructures are very well prepared

Portugal has recently achieved world leadership in the quality of tourism infrastructure, according to the World Economic Forum (WEF) 2019 Tourism Competitiveness Report, released on 4th September.

In the aforementioned report, Portugal reached 12th place for the first time in the global competitiveness ranking. In the Tourism Infrastructure component, Portugal occupies, for the first time, the leadership of this ranking, surpassing countries like Austria, Spain, or the United States.

It should also be noted that Portugal is in its highest position ever, having climbed eight positions since 2013 (20th place). This WEF report provides an in-depth analysis of Tourism in 140 world economies.

The year 2019 is also being the best ever for Lisbon Sight Sailing. Attentive to the evolution of market changes, we have certainly been able to adapt and evolve in order to seize emerging opportunities and innovate continuously, always focused on meeting our clients’ expectations.

Thus, in addition to the high number of corporate events in Lisbon that we organized this year, it was also possible to consolidate offerings for organized group events (mainly through birthday parties or bachelorette parties on board). We increased the number of partners, strengthened the Unique Experiences Collection, and innovated the online booking system, making the user experience even simpler and more enjoyable.

Concluding and summarizing …

We increased the volume of our activity. We maintained the high level of service and also the satisfaction of clients who experience with us. We were distinguished as the best charter company in Lisbon and won the Travel & Hospitality Award 2019.
