The third annual gathering of the House of Beautiful Business took place again in Lisbon from November 3-8, 2018. Over the course of six days, more than 400 residents from business, public sector, academia, and the arts gathered in the Academy of Sciences and the boutique Gallery House hotel.
“A wonderful week full of deep conversations. By far the most interesting and relevant conference I’ve ever attended.”
Some of the program highlights included Priya Parker’s opening session on The Art of Gathering, the Conference of Beautiful Business, the Beautiful Game: Individualism vs. Collectivism, evening Salons on key themes such as Beautiful AI, Purpose and Profit, Gender and Identity in Business, Warm Data, The Future of Intimacy, as well a Data Bazaar, an Actor’s Studio, 12 Toast Dinners, field trips, and much more. Moreover, residents were encouraged to contribute to the House’s permanent spaces, from the Museum of Beautiful Business, an AI-in-Residence, the Music Studio, the Magnum Live Lab, VR Screenings, and the House’s bookstore.
“It was the best gathering of bright-minded and beautiful minds I’ve ever had the pleasure to participate in.”
The House 2018 was produced in collaboration with the BCG Henderson Institute and partners including Galp, T-Systems, and Siemens.
